The event aims to introduce Vietnamese culture to French

Nearly 40 Vietnamese silk paintings are now on display at an exhibition that opened in the Vietnamese Cultural Centre in Paris, France.

The exhibition, the fist of its kind in France, is being co-organised by the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Vietnamese Fine Arts, Photography and Exhibition Department, the Vietnamese Embassy in France and the Vietnamese Cultural Centre in Paris.

As part of activities to celebrate the 1,000th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi, the exhibition features daily activities of Vietnamese people and introduces the country’s traditional culture to international friends.

The event, which will run until August 30, has attracted great attention from both Vietnamese and French artists. (VNA)
