. Foundation for cultural arts exchanges

Meeting the Russian artists, we saw their happiness when their works are displayed in Khanh Hoa.

Mr. Olga Zotova, a Russian artist, said, “Most of the works at the exhibition are landscapes of the Far Eastern Russia. Their painters are well-known in Russian. Now, more and more Russian people travel to Nha Trang; therefore, arts activities like this are very useful for the two sides to understand more about each other.”

Mrs. Olga Zotova confided, “My husband used to work in Cam Ranh for many years, so we had a lot of memories to this land. We are very happy to join the exhibition.”

Bui Van Quang, a Vietnamese artist, also eagerly said, “I think Nha Trang tourist city needs such cultural arts to exchange with foreign artists and tourists.”

The Vietnamese – Russian modern arts exhibition actually is a meaningful cultural activity for cultural life of Nha Trang people and Vietnamese – Russian arts exchanges.
