“Exit” by Nguyen Dinh Dang. |
This is the third solo exhibition of Nguyen Dinh Dang in Japan.
Dang’s paintings reflect both eastern and western culture. Of the 21 oil paintings, 8 are related to music, inspired by Chopin and Debussy.
At the opening on April 3, Nguyen Dinh Dang will play Chopin’s “Nocturne on Fazioli F 308,” on the longest piano in the world (3.08m) with Japanese pianist Yanagi Shunichi.
Dang’s paintings are closely related to music because he is a physicist with a passion for both piano and paintings, which is why Italy’s Fazioli Piano Company organized this exhibition.
Dang was born in 1958 in Hanoi and studied painting and music as a boy. Leaving high school, he was sent to Russia to study nuclear physics. He obtained a doctorate in nuclear physics in 1985 and doctorate in science in 1990 at Moscow University.
Since 1994 he has researched nuclear physics at the RIKEN institute in Japan. He became a member of the Vietnam Art Association in 1987 and a member of the Japanese Art Association in 2005. He has had many exhibitions in Russia, Vietnam and Japan since 1985.
