ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In his work "Screen (side 2: landscape)", the renowned painter Nguyen Gia Tri created a fantastical world of plants, where the richness of nature is elevated through the magnificent medium of lacquer. The dense composition, overflowing with reaching tropical foliage, creates an impressive spatial depth. The colors are strongly contrasting: the deep black background highlights the shimmering silver-white patches of mother-of-pearl, along with deep reds and warm earthy yellows. Light seems to emanate from within, radiating from the exquisite, brilliant leaf veins created by the master's hand. Soft, graceful lines embrace each leaf form, simultaneously showcasing the meticulous detail in every delicate vein. The work is not just a landscape painting but a symphony of colors and materials, evoking feelings of vibrant life, pristine beauty, and the mystery of the tropical forest. Nguyen Gia Tri's style, showcased through his masterful silver leafing and mother-of-pearl inlay techniques, elevated lacquerware to a highly symbolic contemporary art form, affirming his talent and pioneering vision.
