Artists from all over Vietnam have participated in the online art auction devoted to equipping Field Hospital No.6 with essential medical supplies.

In 3 days, the project connected nearly 30 artists, domestic and international alike, regardless of social distancing and the differences in geological locations, materials and styles. They have proved that art can always find a way to reply beautifully to real-world problems.

“Each artwork is a story about the mental body not missing out on emotional challenges, even during the hardest moments”. - said Le Tuan Ry - Art Manager of GocCreation, coordinator partner of the auction.
From July 02, there will be 2 auction sessions on the Facebook page of Viet Pham - co-founder of Artcific and the mastermind behind this impromptu project.

“Due to social distancing and time constraint, the organizing committee and the artists cannot take good quality pictures of all artworks. Most of the photos used are from the artists’ archives, or were taken shortly after the project started. Covid-19 urged some artworks to be priced very reasonably and does not reflect their normal market price. In each posted artwork, besides the price and basic information, audiences can click to read the more personal stories behind the paintings and messages from artists”, Viet shared.

The fist auction session will take place from September 2 - 4, introducing artworks from 11 artists: Vũ Anh, Đào Văn Hoàng, Hoàng Nam Việt, Mai Tạ, Võ Huỳnh Phú, Trần Quang Đại, Jo Ngo, Phúc Văn Đặng, Xuân Nghi, Phạm Công Xeen, Lê Tuấn Ry.
