Bui Thanh Phuong's Hanoi of the different
epochs has different faces. His works from the 80s bear the
obvious influence of Bui Xuan Phai. In the early 90s, however,
his works have a different tint. Featuring familiar city sites,
Phuong created a new colour palette where milky-greens prevail,
adding to the old streets the vivifying feeling of renovation
and replacing melancholy with other, but not less romantic,
expectations. Unfortunately, the artist did not regard his own
achievements in their proper perspective and has since destroyed
most of his cityscapes from this decade. The painting exhibited
here opens the succeeding period when the artist tried to form a
distinctive style giving preference to sharpened form, clear
colours and contrasts, avoiding nuances. This change did not
influence the entire expression of the works, which always
remain romantic and nolstagic, especially the present picture
which sends us back to forgotten times in a city of the past.
Bui Thanh Phuong was born in 1956, the second son of the painter
Bui Xuan Phai. He started painting from adolescence under the
guidance of his father, but is nonetheless considered a
self-taught artist. Phuong's paintings cover different topics,
including landscapes, nudes, and portraits, but the ancient
streets of Hanoi's old Quarter are his greatest favourites, as
they were for his famous father. Phuong also invests much effort
in managing Bui Xuan Phai's rich art heritage, organizing
exhibitions, and oublishing catalogues and books devoted to the
great Hanoi Artist.
Bui Thanh Phuong was born
in 1956, is the second son of the painter Bui Xuan Phai. He

topics as diverse as: landscape, nude, the old town,
portraits, ... average price for 1 file of Phuong at the
moment, is 3,500 USD. Gallery 31 Cua Dong_Hanoi of Phuong is showcasing his

Bui Thanh Phuong's impressionistic paintings convey his deep
affection for the ancient streets of his hometown, Hanoi, as
well as his love of nature. Bui Thanh Phuong continues to
sketch and then paint Hanoi's Old Quarter, reinforcing and
celebrating his memories of the grace and beauty of this
grand old city, against its inevitable modern development.
