The 27th edition of AAL welcomes around 20 Asian art exhibitions from galleries across various countries, along with over 20 auction sessions focused on Chinese, Japanese, Southeast Asian, Indian, Middle Eastern, and Islamic art.

"A Glimpse of Vietnam" showcases a diverse collection of artworks by lacquer artist Phung Pham, artist Le Thiet Cuong, artist Quynh Giang and artist Ngo Van Sac. This collection highlights some of the most unique styles and perspectives across different generations of Vietnamese art.

The exhibition includes Phung Pham’s mastery of cubism on traditional Vietnamese lacquer, Le Thiet Cuong’s minimalism with gouache on cheesecloth, Quynh Giang’s intense expressions through oil on canvas, and Ngo Van Sac’s distinctive wood-burn portraits, Vietnamplus reported.

It offers a fresh view on contemporary Vietnamese art and provides an opportunity for international art enthusiasts to discover artists and works from the post-French-colonial era. Nguyen Dinh Long, a representative from Thang Long Art Gallery, said that through “A Glimpse of Vietnam,” the gallery hopes to promote Vietnamese culture and contemporary art to foreign art lovers. The exhibitions being held at prestigious auction platforms like Sotheby’s, Christie’s, and Bonhams offer a valuable opportunity to showcase contemporary Vietnamese art alongside major global art forms.
