Calligraphy works not only embody traditional beauty and awaken modern aesthetic sensibilities, but also enhance public awareness, encouraging a greater appreciation of the role and value of calligraphy.
The artworks have been arranged, decorated, and displayed in modules at various locations, prepared over a span of four months.
The themes of the calligraphy works are inspired by the poetry and literature written in Nom (Vietnamese ideographic script) and quoc ngu (national romanised Vietnamese script) by historical and literary figures, such as Nguyen Trai, Le Thanh Tong, Nguyen Binh Khiem, Nguyen Du and Ho Chi Minh. All of them are closely associated with the history of the city and have made contributions to the Temple of Literature.
The exhibition will run until September 25./.
