Since the early 1990s, many new approaches on art has flowed into Vietnam. A view on gender and an approach to gender can be seen as a remarkable breakthrough for studies on women, which helps change the view and thoughts of women and create gender equality in many walks of life during the first phase of Vietnam’s integration into the world. Vietnam has grown fast since the 1986 reforms with narrower gender gap. Accounting for 50% of the population and the workforce as well as taking part in almost all fields of social life, Vietnamese women have played increasingly important roles in the development of the country. | Since the early 1990s, many new approaches on art has flowed into Vietnam.

Vietnam has grown fast since the 1986 reforms with narrower gender gap. Accounting for 50% of the population and the workforce as well as taking part in almost all fields of social life, Vietnamese women have played increasingly important roles in the development of the country. The recent period has witnessed an increasing number of female leaders, scientists, artists etc. More and more women are attaining better education so as to be able to control their own lives in term of knowledge, way of thinking and earning potential. It can be easily seen that the now-a-day Vietnamese woman can keep up with their male counterparts in many field. However, those social changes have not been reflected in fine art. In other words, feminist art has not been formed in Vietnam.
