CITAZIONE
Ambedo is a luxurious new hardcover book that collects the very best paintings and drawings by Tran Nguyen completed from 2009 to 2018. It showcases her sensuous and personal work that was done for gallery exhibitions, as well as her advertising, book and editorial illustration projects completed as a freelance artist. Over 120 paintings are featured along with nearly a dozen preliminary sketches. An introduction by Tran opens the book, followed by her brief intimate commentary for each of her solo and group show chapters.
The book features gilt edges (gold printed on the edges of the pages) and utilizes gold for highlighted text treatments on the interior pages and on the cover.
Tran’s paintings are created with a soft, delicate quality using colored pencil and acrylic on paper. She’s most known for her paintings of whimsical women and melancholic landscapes, which often possess an air of fantasy and surrealism.
