“Three
Workers” is a timeless portrait from Vietnamese every day life. Here the three
workers are taking a tea break, perhaps during lunch. Squatting on typical low set
stools, their faces are sans details, only suggesting their mood or conversations.

Details
do not seem to matter so much for Binh. Famous
for his delicate and Zen like renderings of the human figure, he relates his style more to
music than to any scholarly art technique. His
use of browns, taupe and the occasional off white form an expansive background for his
figures, often captured in a social setting or a solitary moment of contemplation.
As one of Vietnam’s most successful and popular artists, Binh
has exhibited widely both locally and abroad including Japan, Hong Kong, France, Britain
and the USA. |
