Summary

A monograph of works dedicated to the Vietnamese painter Nguyen Xuan Huy. Text in English and German.

Description

The painter Nguyen Xuan Huy (*1976) is an enlightener. Born in Vietnam, he came to Europe at the age of 17, first studying in Bordeaux, and then in Halle. As a result of his own life story, he considers the precise and above all logical analysis of reality to be much more than just ideology. It is specifically this special viewpoint that makes him a noteworthy protagonist of current painting. His technically brilliant paintings therefore often appear to be allegories charged with mythology or philosophy for the intellectual condition of our apparently totally unfettered present.

More on this Book
