It is known that the exhibition is part of the art creation campaign "Creating religion in life" with the theme "Perceiving Buddhist culture through art forms", towards the United Nations Day of Vesak 2025.
The exhibition organized by the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha - Central Cultural Committee brings together 51 works by 12 talented artists, opening up an artistic space to spread the cultural traditions and meanings of Buddhism.
The group of 12 artists (Trinh Sinh Nha, Le Ba Cau, Can Manh Tuong, Nguyen Van Nghia, Hoang Huong Giang...) have all been involved and dedicated to Vietnamese fine arts for a long time. Each artist participating in the exhibition has a unique style, from meticulous realistic representations to creative abstract styles.
The paintings on display are the crystallization of the artists’ talent, passion and profound experiences. With delicate strokes and expressions on painting materials, 12 artists have recreated familiar images and symbols of Buddhism in their own way, taking viewers on a unique and emotional spiritual journey.
Most Venerable Thich Tho Lac - Head of the Cultural Department, Vietnam Buddhist Sangha said that the exhibition will be a wonderful bridge between art and morality, between beauty and truth. The works are not just paintings, but also messages about love, sharing, compassion and wisdom.
The message of the exhibition is the spirit of solidarity, tolerance and wisdom. In a world as volatile as today, we need the good values that Buddhism brings even more.
The exhibition also hopes to give the public an insight into the moral and spiritual values of Buddhism in modern life. The works at the exhibition not only have the beauty of painting and art but also convey noble philosophies of life, aiming to spread the love, compassion and wisdom of Buddhism.
The exhibition "Enlightening Buddhism in Life" helps visitors have more opportunities to contemplate, immerse themselves in the artistic space, and better understand the meaning of Buddhism in life.
