» Montien Boonma, one of Thailand's most significant contemporary artists, died almost 17 years ago.

Freedom, creatively speaking
Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 22/02/2017
» In many ways, "Condemned To Be Free", a duo exhibition which just opened last week at WTF Gallery, is in a constant state of flux. On the first floor, artist Kritsada Duchsadeevanich looks simultaneously at the transformation of his own political ideology and that of the country's political history. On the upper floor, painter Tawan Wattuya leaves out his watercolours and turns the gallery into an experimental space where the lines between art and activism, the authority of an artist and voice of ordinary people, are blurred.

Where politics meets art
Life, Published on 10/02/2017
» Often, what's on view in a gallery space is an echo of current anxiety in society at large. It's significant to note, then, the number of recent exhibitions that were activism-inclined. Take, for instance photographer Luke Duggleby's exhibition "For Those Who Died Trying", at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre earlier this month. It featured portraits of human rights defenders, killed or abducted, over the past decades.
