Nguyen Trung is one of the most influential and prominent artists in Vietnam today, where he was born in 1940. Nguyen studied at the Gia Dinh Fine Arts College, and his works can be seen in the Fine Arts Museum in his home Vietnam, the National Museum of Singapore and in many private collections both in Vietnam and abroad.
He is one of the few Vietnamese artists whose works are sold in international auctions. From the starting point in his career, he has won many awards that served as an acknowledgment of his artistic aspirations. In 1961 he won the silver medal at the Saigon Spring Exhibition and a gold medal in 1963. Continuing his work, Nguyen had his first solo exhibition in 1967 at the Vietnamese – French Association in Saigon. This was only the beginning of a number of his exhibitions as well as prizes won.
