Bonhams auctions Vietnamese art works

Among the highlights of the auction is Vue du Delta du Fleuve Rouge by Vietnamese painter Hoang Tich Chu (1912 – 2003), with an estimated value of between EUR15,000 and EUR20,000.

The lacquer painting comes from the collection of art works owned by a European diplomat who worked in Vietnam in the 1980s and bought it directly from artist Hoang Tich Chu in November 1986.

Tich Chu, one of the nation’s greatest lacquer artists, used a rich palette of colours, especially blue and green, to replace the traditional red, highlighted by gold and eggshells. 

Other paintings on sale include Retour au Village by Nguyen Phan Chanh (1892 – 1984). The piece created in 1955 accurately depicts the return of soldiers to their village following the liberation of North Vietnam in 1954.

The piece was a gift to Hungarian photographer Miklos Rev (1906 – 1998) who met Nguyen Phan Chanh on a trip to Vietnam in 1959. The painting’s value is between EUR30,000 and EUR50,000.

On sale are also paintings costing EUR3,000 to EUR9,000 by Vietnamese artists such as Huynh Phuong Dong, Diep Minh Chau, and Do Xuan Doan.

Buzz, Bump, Goal! Drone Football Takes Center Stage at CES

Five red drones are competing against five blue drones in a thrilling drone soccer match. Controlling the drones from outside the playing field ensures safety for all. The game lasts for three action-packed minutes, with the drones protected by globe-like shields, zooming around, colliding with each other, and bouncing off the green field. Their mission: to score goals by maneuvering a drone through the opposing team’s “donut,” a hoop suspended 3.5 meters in the air that lights up when a goal is achieved. Sean Greenhalgh, a professional drone soccer player and former Trader Joe’s employee, reveals that he discovered this emerging sport during a drone photography course about a year ago. Now, he serves as the captain and main striker for Team USA, alongside teaching children aged four and older the sport. While it may be a niche profession, Greenhalgh appears to be doing well and enjoying his role. Jasmine Lee, the match commentator, explains that an engineer, who happened to be a mas...

Vietnam reach ASEAN football final after beating Indonesia

in the 2022 AFF Championship final after claiming a 2-0 win over Indonesia in their semifinal second leg in Hanoi on Monday evening. This is the fourth time that Vietnam have qualified for the AFF Championship final. Thanks to Nguyen Tien Linh’s double, Vietnam defeated Indonesia 2-0 after two legs as both teams had drawn 0-0 in Central Jakarta last Friday. The Vietnamese striker put his team ahead quite early with a volley in the third minute before earning his second to double the lead with a header in the 48th minute. Indonesia’s most noticeable remarks were their faults against the hosts that resulted in two yellow cards. The players of Shin Tae Young, who had taken to Instagram to personally criticize three rough tackles by Vietnam’s left-back Doan Van Hau on Sunday, tried to hit back but their finishes either lacked accuracy or failed to beat Vietnamese goalkeeper Dang Van Lam. Vietnam wrapped up a 2-0 victory on aggregate to set up the finale against the winners...
