Le Minh - Previous Sales

Le Minh was born in Hung Yen, Vietnam and graduated from the Saigon State Movie College with a degree in graphic arts. Le Minh’s paintings reflect the world as he experiences it - chaos intermingled with emptiness, light juxtaposed with dark, vibrant colors tamed by subdued hues. Le Minh's abstract paintings are structured with houses, windows and cities often viewed from different perspectives. His paintings depict hectic, crowded life, glaring tropical sun, bustling night life as well as serene water scenes. “In my work, I try to capture the frenetic energy of daily life, the awakening and rebirth associated with personal prayer and meditation, the peaceful calm of looking out over the world from a distance … obscuring details, leaving much to the imagination”. He hopes that viewers of his works can learn from the "murmurings" between the opposite pairs he presents. In addition to his vibrant large oil on canvas paintings, Le Minh is an accomplished graphic designer working in the desktop publishing field for art and advertising agencies.
