The politics of love
Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 08/09/2016
» Thanapol Virulhakul, critically-acclaimed stage director and choreographer, has a way of giving space a certain significance.

» Singapore's Art Week is over but it doesn't mean there aren't any good remnants left. The newly-opened National Gallery, for one, is hardly what one would call a remnant, with a comprehensive collection of works by Southeast Asian artists from the 19th century onwards which would take at least a day to completely take in. There are also, of course, a few major shows at the old military quarters-turned-art hub Gillman Barracks, such as Steve Mccurry's iconic photography show, Yinka Shonibare's new sculptures and Joan Jonas' acclaimed "They Come To Us Without A Word" exactly as seen in last year's Venice Biennale.

» 'You'd better come up here, we should get drunk together and then talk," said Chiang Mai-based artist Mit Jai Inn. The 55-year-old, who insisted I address him as phi (brother) instead of loong (uncle) despite the fact that he was already an established artist before I was even born, was apologetic for not explaining himself very well during a recent telephone interview.

Coming full circle
Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 08/10/2014
» Running at Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC) until the middle of next month, “Thai Charisma: Heritage + Creative Power” is a juxtaposition of museum-quality artefacts and contemporary works of art — the very old with the very new — which results in an experience that’s sometimes so overwhelming that it’s difficult to digest or even describe.
