As Seen by Both Sides: American and Vietnamese Artists Look at the War
VU GIANG HUONG
|
|
|
|
|
Vu Giang Huong is a strong presence in the art world of Vietnam. since 1962 she has been in charge of silk and woodcut at the Hanoi Fine Arts College, where she received her art education, and from 1977 to 1987 was vice-director of the school. She was recently elected vice-director of the Vietnam Fine Arts association, which has 779 members throughout the nation and organizes exhibitions in both Vietnam and other countries.
"I think that Vietnamese women are very skilled and have good ideas on art. But during the war they not only participated, but also had to take care of the children. Even now women have a lot to do. They work in the offices and have all the family work. They don't have the opportunity to do good art."
