Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown: Vivacious in Vietnam

Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown: Vivacious in Vietnam

Boi Tran is a painter and something of a throwback, an anomaly, a creature from another, earlier time in the life of the onetime Imperial City. She also cooks, magnificently from a repertoire of Imperial Hue-era dishes numbering over 100. She spoils all of us with a succession of dishes. Small, flavorful, and beautifully presented. And that culinary tradition, which gave Hue its reputation as a food capital, continues today.

Asian Art News | Small and Miniature Paintings by the Masters at Minh Chau Art Gallery

Minh Chau Art Gallery showcased the tender works of Vietnam’s great masters, small in scale yet vast in spirit. From Bui Xuan Phai’s intimate portraits to Nguyễn Tường Lân’s quiet grace, these miniature paintings carried within them a country’s soul. Among them, Boi Tran’s presence shimmered like silk, gentle, devoted, and luminous. Hers was not only a brush, but a breath, woven into the legacy of those who came before and those still to come.
These were not just paintings. They were memories held in a palm. Moments of stillness. Echoes of belonging. A tribute to the beauty that endures in quiet form.
