On a gentle autumn evening, October 1, 2024, the space of B&C Maison d’Art became a warm meeting point for art and cultural dialogue, as the Design Alliance Asia and delegates attending AsiaMeets 2024 gathered to connect and exchange with the “Khoái” artists group.
More than 30 international guests from nearly 30 countries came together to meet, converse, and appreciate the paintings in an intimate and open atmosphere. Language barriers seemed to dissolve, giving way to empathy through visual art—where color, line, and emotion became a shared language.
A highlight of the evening was the presentation of 22 works from the “Resonance” collection by the “Khoái” artists group. Rich in emotional nuances, the paintings were both personal and harmonious—like visual notes resonating softly within the stillness of autumn. A touch of warm wine was shared, just enough to deepen the artistic conversations, bringing people from different cultural backgrounds closer through attentive and sincere listening.
Accompanying and leading the program was designer Phạm Huyền Kiêu – Strategy Consulting Director at Experts in Action, Founder of Arts Journey, Editor-in-Chief of Locals Visual Arts, and Founding Member of The Design Alliance Asia. With extensive experience in design, visual arts, and cultural connectivity, he skillfully opened up engaging dialogues, helping international delegates gain deeper insight into the context of contemporary Vietnamese painting as well as the creative spirit of the “Khoái” artists group.
The gathering was not only an occasion to appreciate artworks, but also an opportunity to share creative stories, cultural perspectives, and personal experiences between artists and art lovers from various countries. In this way, art became a bridge of connection—gentle yet enduring.B&C Maison d’Art hopes to continue being an open destination where art enthusiasts from Vietnam and abroad can meet, exchange, learn, and share more about painting, culture, and meaningful spiritual values. Each encounter is like a seed, sown with sincerity, allowing art to continue spreading and to remain long in the hearts of those it touches.
