Ha Nguyen Tri: Our artist in residence
Ha Nguyen Tri (a.k.a Tri Rom) is well regarded as one of the most captivating contemporary artists in Vietnam.
Not graduated from any arts school, Ha Nguyen Tri has paved a unique path compared to that of other fellows. Going through an arduous early life, Tri had to do different jobs, including quality control position at IKEA, to make ends meet. Those abundant personal experience gave him tremendous aspects of life which later were translated into his paintings.
His close friend, the prominent artist Le Trieu Dien whose paintings are displayed at the top-notched Dumonteil gallery, once commented that “Tri Rom is probably the most interesting Vietnamese artist to look out for.”
Men and Food I was displayed at the Evergreen art exhibition organized at Arts Museum of Ho Chi Minh City. You can grab this extraordinary painting HERE.
Tri is among a very few South East Asian artists to be featured at the popular Nordart 2022!
The miraculous process
“I have never thought I would be an artist, yet life unfolds in a way that I am now grateful for, to be an art deliverer. Starting from zero, I am fortunate to receive meaningful instructions from amazing artists and enrich my style from different perspectives.
Getting approved by Nord Art and other exhibitions, though the first big step, is such a great motivator for me that I would love to use this opportunity to perfect myself and also give back to the community in any way I could.”

Hi, it’s great to know Ha Nguyen Tri. His paintings are impressive!

I met him once in an exhibition and he seems to be very different from other Vietnamese artists (in a positive way though).
His art is awesome! I cannot stop getting my eyes off it.
Just saw Ha Nguyen Tri’s painting at the Nord Art 2022 today and was curious about his other paintings. Greeting from Germany!!
Danke! It’s interesting to have you here, Klining. Yes, Ha Nguyen Tri’s paintings are chosen by Nord Art’s curators and currently displayed at the exhibition. Let’s know if we can connect you with the artist himself.
