Nguyen Quang Huy
'Tribal Indochine Woman II' Photorealistic Portrait Painting

2008

About the Item

‘Tribal Indochine Woman 2’ is a large photorealist oil on canvas painting created by Vietnamese artist Nguyen Quang Huy in 2008. Featuring a captivating white, grey and black palette, the painting depicts a close view of a southeastern Asian woman, looking at us directly. Her magnificent headdress attracts our attention while her direct eye contact invites us into her world. The countryside north of Hanoi has a multitude of ethnicities inhabiting their lands. Well known are the so-called 'highland' people or ethnic minorities residing in the mountainous areas. Huy has traveled there many times over the years and gotten to know the people and their ways of life. The result is a series of photo realistic paintings of the women wearing head ware which symbolizes the tribe they are from. His paintings reflect the misty dreamlike coolness of the mountains and cultural aspects and the beauty of the female inhabitants. With its photorealist quality, exquisite subject and black and white palette, this large oil on canvas painting of square format will be a strong focal point in any home, perhaps placed above a buffet, console table, credenza or settee. Nguyen Quang Huy was born in Ha Tay, Vietnam in 1971 and studied at the Hanoi Fine Arts University as well as participating in residencies in Germany, Australia and the USA. Huy has staged solo exhibitions in Vietnam, Germany, France, and Singapore, and participated in several exhibitions internationally, including group shows in Singapore, Germany, France, Japan, USA, Finland, Thailand, Australia, the Netherlands, and United Kingdom. His works are included in the permanent collection of the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum, Japan and the World Bank Art Program, USA.
