Nguyen Thanh Binh - Toriizaka Art

Nguyen Thanh Binh

Vietnamese contemporary artist Nguyen Thanh Binh’s iconic oil paintings almost single-handedly put Vietnamese art and artists on the world stage. He likens his preference for simplicity in composition and design in his artwork to his own way of life, noting that his paintings often express his sorrow and the sorrow of many in his generation. Although most well known for his paintings of women in Ao Dai, he is passionate about music, dance, architecture and flowers and is most interested in following his passions at this point in his career. Nguyen Thanh Binh derives much of his inspiration for his paintings from Japanese Haiku poetry where a minimal number of words portray great meaning. Many people look at Binh’s paintings and see a kind of poetic simplicity and on the surface they may be correct. However, Binh has endured significant trials of both mind and body and his art represents a place of refuge which is deeply influenced by his experiences. “I use oils and canvas originated in the west and combine them with my eastern eyes, hands and mind to create my paintings. My pieces may appear to be simple but my mind is brimming with memories, feelings and passion and each of them quietly resonates from my soul."
