Speaking at the event, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Vuong Duy Bien lauded the organisation of the exhibition, saying that it offers a chance for the public to enjoy Vietnam’s traditional calligraphy art of the nation.
The works, inspired by poems of late renowned poets in Vietnam’s history, are written in Nom - the Chinese character-based Vietnamese script.
The event also features the brushwork performance and a calligraphy space for the community, where calligraphers teach children how to learn and write Nom scripts.
The event runs until March 2, except for the Tet festival from February 14-17.
