BOI TRAN, "ELEGANT LADIES OF HUE", 2015,
OR THE INEVITABLE CHOICE OF DISTINCTION AGAINST FATE
In 1975, even though the region of Hue has regained peace, the scars remain wide open. Located at the pivotal point between the North and the South, it was the scene of incessant bombings and battles during the civil war.
A martyrdom, an apocalypse.
What to do when you have nothing left? Not even a photo from your childhood. When you have encountered, since then, insidious and cruel death, which has taken away loved ones?
Not to submit. Never. Never complain.
In Vietnam, everyone has experienced war. Not everyone has won it.
Later, after the hardships, gradually, to listen once again to the birdsong, to drink green tea, to gently endure the rain, and to care for one's own. To pay tribute to one's son gone too soon and to smile. Always smile. As a proud 18th generation descendant of the Generalissimo Phan Quang Minh (1350-1454) from Ha Tinh, and one of his six sons, Phan Huu Gia, who settled just south of what was not yet Hue, in 1438.
The painting for Boi Tran is like a mantra. Always the same people, the same gestures, the same garden. A creed without liturgy.
Our majestic lacquer depicts seven (not eight...) young women in ao dai (traditional Vietnamese dress).
Seductive in their carefully maintained distance, and not by their displayed voluptuousness, as in Nguyen Trung's works—the master of Boi Tran. More introverted, almost austere, blending into the vegetation.
In the distance, on the left, a nha san, the house of minorities that the artist saves from destruction. Further to the right, a nha ruong, a traditional kinh house, all wood like the former. And the garden gate.
In Hue.
A closed world, in the hills.
Distinction, the ultimate weapon against fate.
Like sharing a slice of eternity.
