Never before seen in the Baltimore region, this exhibition of Vietnamese art is a mixture of Eastern techniques such as watercolor on silk, woodblock, plaster engraving, and lacquer painting, combined with the European influences of Impressionism and Cubism. All the artists were toddlers at the closing of America?s military involvement in their country.
Five Vietnamese artists featured in the exhibition will give demonstrations on painting on silk and lacquer, and the techniques of plaster engraving at the opening. Admission is free.
