Bui Huu Hung. Lacquer paintings from Hanoi.

The international art market discovered Vietnamese lacquer paintings 20 years ago.
Lacquer traditionally comes in three colors. Before World War II, Hanoi's artists started to use a new technique known as chiseling which gives a rich palette of colors.


Bui Huu Hung's style is one of the most recognized.

The artist was born in 1957. Today his paintings are available in the best Hanoi's art galleries.

Biu Huu Hung's art is very priced among the collectors around the world.


If you want to buy a painting of Vietnamese renowned artist in Hanoi, purchase it only in good galleries. There are many copies sold to naive tourists.
