More than 200 art works by Vietnamese and international painters, including some from rare private collections, will be displayed at the event to revive the old habit of buying paintings to decorate houses during the Lunar New Year (Tet) holidays, and to popularize Vietnamese contemporary art to international friends.

During the event, a number of activities including fashion performances and talks among painters, art collectors and art lovers will be organized.
