The Literature of Lacquer Art: A Vietnamese Traditional Art Technique and its Glory

Author(s) Ms. Rosemary Tran
Country United States
Abstract This research paper focuses on lacquer art and its role in Vietnamese history, as well as in the modern world. It explains the harsh labor conditions and time-intensive process that go into creating a piece of lacquer art, and attempts to explain why, in spite of its difficulty, it is still made today. Lacquer art has traveled through many Asian countries, and yet this paper focuses on one specific type: Vietnamese traditional lacquer art. As an art technique unique to the culture and history of Vietnam, it is distinctive and not just taken from other countries. Though the process of creating a piece is intense and restless, even leaving marks upon the artist’s skin, the resulting product is truly unmeasurable. Vietnamese lacquer art has been the country’s traditional art form for over 2,000 years, with it serving as relics in pagodas and spiritual items for Buddhism, worship paintings, communal houses, etc. Its labor, history, and the application of this traditional technique combined with artistic creations of older and younger artists has formed it into what it is today. Though this art form is not usually known in modern society, in the art world and among older generations, this art form is extremely valuable due to its materials, labor, and the history that it holds, which is why there are so many collectors from around the world collecting these pieces.
