Art Exhibition: ARTECLASICA'10
Artist: Vasan Sitthiket, Thaweesak Srithongdee, Jirapat Tatsanasomboon, Therdkiat Wangwatcharakul
Dates: 14 – 19 July, 2010
Venue: Costa Salguero Convention Center, Buenos Aires, Argentina


Thavibu Gallery was invited to present Thai contemporary art under the banner 'Meeting Cultures' at the ARTECLASICA'10 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.The event will run from July 14-19, 2010.

Thavibu will present works by well known Thai artists Vasan Sitthiket,Thaweesak Srithongdee, Jirapat Tatsanasomboon, and Therdkiat Wangwatcharakul.



Vasan Sitthiket is 53 years old and one of Thailand's most acclaimed artists. He is known as a social critic, and most of his works address problems within contemporary Thai and international societies, such as the exploitation of the poor by the rich as well as the corruption among politicians and bureaucrats. He also points his finger to the rest of the 'capitalist world. Vasan has participated in numerous exhibitions and projects in Thailand and abroad, including the Venice Biennale (Italy, 2003).

Thaweesak Srithongdee is 40 years old and a graduated from Silapakorn University. His style echoes the influence of Surrealism and Pop Art. Thaweesak is a keen observer of people, their physical and mental characteristics, and his works are often about the need for self-expression. It is also about freedom from society's rules and the status quo of the real world we live in. Thaweesak has participated in several exhibitions in Thailand, and abroad such as in Netherlands, Germany, Great Britain, Singapore, Japan, and Indonesia. He recently participated in the Fukuoka Triennale and in the Jakarta Biennale.

Jirapat Tatsanasomboon is 39 years old, a graduate from Silapakorn University and one of Thailand’s most talented and upcoming artists. He has participated in several exhibitions in Thailand and also in Korea, USA, Singapore, India, and Monaco. Jirapat applies a pop-art style to his paintings and plays around with well known images and icons of western art and transforms these well known icons by changing their appearances and putting them in a new and alien Thai setting. The interaction between the Thai and western characters may be viewed as symbolizing interactions at various levels: east vs west and modern vs traditional.

Therdkiat Wangwatcharakul is 39 years old and a graduate from Silapakorn University. He paints with oil on aluminium sheets or on canvas. The use of aluminium makes his play with light and shadow unique. Typical to Therdkiat’s spatially sensitive compositions are his minimal urban-scapes. He also harnesses staining techniques that imbue his canvases with the same metallic veneer of his mainstay aluminium surfaces, Therdkiat is a master at evoking the loneliness of the big city. Therdkiat has participated in several exhibitions in Thailand, as well as in Singapore, Japan, the Netherlands, Korea, Spain, and the USA. He was awarded the Jurors' Choice Prize in the ASEAN Art Awards.

Party: Body Language (i) by Pieng-or Pinpart



Thavibu Gallery is pleased to present the art exhibition Body Language (I) with brass and bronze sculptures by the young and talented Thai artist Pieng-or Pinpart on 22 May - 3 July, 2010.

Pieng-or Pinpart’s life is marked by her struggle to deal with the physical and emotional symptoms of being bipolar. In Body Language I Pieng-or moulds bronze and brass sculptures that visualize the alternating bouts of extreme depression and mania she suffers through the debilitating disorder. Her bent, beaten, and torn body frames are a graphic expression of her fluctuating range of emotions, the medication used to control the illness, and the physical toll that her body and mind endure. Her battered forms are testament to her creative resilience and her resolve to bring greater stability to her life. Pieng-or is currently studying for her BA in Fine Art at King Mongkut Institute of Technology Latkrabang.

The two-part art exhibition Body Language I & II showcases new three-dimensional works by artists Pieng-or Pinpart and Angkana Kongpetch. Marking their debut solo exhibitions, this two-stage exhibition highlights young female artists who produce metal sculptures using the human body as a metaphor for individual themes. Aside from commonalities in gender, age, and aesthetics, both artists affirm the importance for physical and spiritual balance in our existence.

Body Language I & II are the third and fourth exhibitions in the year-long project, 3D @ Thavibu, highlighting three-dimensional art in Suite 307 of Thavibu Gallery. Curated by Steven Pettifor, 3D @ Thavibu will present
a series of exhibitions featuring established and emergent Thai and international artists.

Icons of French Design by French Designer in the 20th Century



Exhibition : Icons of French Design
by French Designer in the 20th Century
on July 9 - August 15, 2010
at Bangkok Art and Culture Centre, Bangkok

Icons of French Design

Organizer: Embassy of France in Thailand
Co-Organizer: Bangkok Art and Culture Centre

France is amongst the leading countries in Design. Be it a French designer or an object designed for a French label, some of these objects have left a deep impression in our minds and collective memories. In fact, some are so famous that they have been sold for a fortune in auction houses and been given pride of place amongst works of art in museums. In a certain way, they are true icons of modern world.

? Icons of French Design ? is a collection of thirty iconic works representing French design in the 20th century, from Philippe Starck to Jean Prouv?, from Pierre Paulin to Ronan Bouroullec, not to mention Le Corbusier. French design has been distinguished by its magnitude to innovate and incorporate cutting edge technologies of its period, as this is typical for a country where engineering has earned such a prominent place. From the DS Citro?n to the Concorde, and Le Corbusier’s chaise LC4, ? Icons of French Design ? Exhibition reflects a role it has established in the international design history.

Still by Alan Davis and Caroline C. Green



Exhibition : Still
by Alan Davis and Caroline C. Green
on July 1 - 30, 2010
at Rotunda and Garden Gallery, Bangkok

There will be an opportunity to meet the artists at an opening evening, which will take place on Friday 2nd of July, 2010 at 6pm

The Neilson Hays Library welcomes you to an exciting exhibition by two contemporary artists: Alan Davis and Caroline C. Green. They offer their insights into time and space through a series of illuminating images. They create a subtle world that explores ideas of suspended states and stills.

Alan studied at Mount Allison University, University of Toronto, and Queen's University and he has recently been appointed Head of Art at Patana International School. He is represented by Marcia Rafelman Fine Arts in Toronto. Alan's photographs resemble a fusion of painting and early historical photographic processes. The silver and gold metallic highlights of the photographs blend an antique and a modern aesthetic. Alan explores the "everyday" in his work but transforms it; taking something simple and making it monumental or sacred. He plays on the symbolic qualities of objects while the subtle tones and reflective qualities create a meditative resonance. Alan's work depicts an absence or void in time. The images of fruit and landscape are timeless, eternal and universal. The large format of his works is almost iconographic, presenting the viewer with the idea of the absolute. The photographs freeze the "known" in time, presenting it in a carefully crafted way that reveals nature as grand, holy and sacred. They are "Still" or "Holy" sites. Like a sacred relic; pristine and balanced, old and new, presenting a dislocated sense of time. The still life work contains a human element: the manmade objects. The main event though, is quiet; no quarrel, no conflict, no competition, no struggle. Alan acheives a slight tension or suspension from "being" (Still) in meditation through his work.

Caroline studied at the Royal College of Art and was awarded art scholoarships to The University of Kyoto and The University of Calgary. Caroline has exhibited her work in Japan, Canada, Germany and England and was a Fine Art research fellow in Printmaking at the University of Cheltenham. She has published her work in "Printmaking Today" and has exhibited in the Mall Galleries "National Print Exhibition" in London. Caroline has previously been awarded the Cohn and Wolfe Art Prize and the John Purcell Art Prize. Caroline's work is based on conflict and tensions, either physically or mentally. The human trace is apparent, a small voice in an overwhelming world. The human shadow appeals to the subconscious with an urgency that something is about to happen. Claustrophobic anxiety is seemingly oppressive or crushing: however, the human will keep on fighting. There is a struggle between the powers of the unpredictable elements and the physically weaker human subjects and the viewer feels suspended in a narrative frame. Caroline's new work describes a landscape of the body through space. By manipulating photo etching she creates a trance state where the self confronts the shadow in an emotional transference. Stark yet invisible, bodies mutate, contort and mask gesture. Caroline's works capture in pictorial stills an unsettled and elusive synthesis between time and space.

Through Our Eyes: Windows into the Lives of Affected People from the Deep South’ Photo Exhibition



Through Our Eyes: Windows into the Lives of Affected People
from the Deep South’ Photo Exhibition

At the Hall in front of The Art Center, Center of Academic Resources, Chulalongkorn University
11-26 June 2010
Opening reception: Friday 11 June, 2010 at 5.30pm



In the last four years at least 3000 people have died, several thousands were injured and many more people have been socially and mentally affected by the violence in the Deep South. In newspapers and audio-visual media hardly any time and space is allocated to give these people visibility. Many victims have been reduced to mere numbers in reports. Most of the Thai population outside the three border provinces is not aware of the human or tragic dimension this conflict has caused in many lives so far. Some media reports might even contribute to misunderstanding or even incite hatred towards people living in the predominantly Muslim region.

This photo exhibition would like to tell a different story. It wants to show the human side of the conflict, it wants to share the hopes and life stories of the people that have been reduced to statistics in a bloody and seemingly endless conflict, and it wants to put faces where there is otherwise a nameless mass.

The conflict is centred in Thailand’s three Southern border provinces, Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat. This is a region where over 80% of the population adhere to the Islamic faith and speak the local Malay dialect known as Yawi. Independent sources report 10,609 violent incidents taking place between January 2004 and January 2010 resulting in at least 4100 deaths, 60% of which have been Muslims.

This collection of photos wants to take the audience on a journey to a place where there are no sides and where there is no real sentiment of “us versus them”. The photos have been taken by twenty five local women, children, and young people with the aim of inviting the eyes of the outside world into the daily lives of those who are affected by this conflict. While FES and its local partner organisation Friends of the Victimized Families Group provided the participants with digital cameras as well as a brief workshop on basic photography skills, the actual strength of this exhibition stems from the powerful personal messages the photographers conveyed in their photos.

This is their story, through their eyes.

Agalico Budur by Ekachai Milintapas and Wachirapan Intaraworapad



Agalico Budur


The black hole of joy, grief maybe waiting to abyss
The black hole of sorrow, joy could wait by the end

“There is nothing that communicates better than art. It’s quicker than language and clearer than philosophy.” Just as same as the images of naked bodies in the art work of new duo artists who have made a good reflection about some story within their mind. If clothes have cover to body as it’s functional, the body that keeps covering human’s mind can reflective some inner mind as well. The above mention could encourage an intention of this time of creative art then. Ekachai’s work has convey about the truth of suffer while spread around the molecule of peacefully by respect and understanding to any of worldly happening as this statement as from his thoughtful that “if both of physical and mental have no suffering, that’s would be really splendid lucky which everyone desire for, but to be without from all those suffer. Perhaps it must start from our own self thus.” And for Wachirapan’s work has conveyed about the delusion of joyful that astray by sticky adhere in his own ego. It seem superior civilized by any taste of delicious knowledge, but always impetuously by his own unreliably of delude wisdom. As like as his thought confession that “we shall assembly to each other for last before nothing good nor bad left for ours world no more. Only just trace of smile and the crust of my tear remains in an abyss of endless feeling thus.”





This time of an art exhibition as a figurative style as entitled “Agalico Budur” doesn’t only stress aiming for more alien new look than the exact substantial of the theme which could possibly be one of an appreciated value to see through the unstable of joy and sorrow. Thus time is as no matter as incomparable to the act of the mind. For easier understanding that joy and sorrow didn’t depend on the time but depend on the consequences of the mind existence that is when sustain in happy, it’s happy and when sustain in grief, it’s definitely grieve then. Admiring that new generation of ours Thai Buddhist social like both of them care enough to raise thoroughly essential of Dharma as an open issue as to persuasion. Hopefully that all Buddhists fellow would accompany with the possibility of the existing mind to be joyful peace even when have to face with great suffer in reality.





Opening exhibition will take place on Tuesday 13th July at 18:00 pm. till on Friday 13th August, 2010. At Artery Gallery, 919/1 the Silom Galleria Building, (UNIT B09) B1 Fl., Silom Rd., Bangkok 10500 Thailand

Representation | Representation by German photography



Photo Exhibition : Presentation | Representation
by German photography
on June14 - July 16, 2010
at Bangkok University Gallery, Rangsit Campus, Bangkok

In Germany, a lively and heterogeneous photography scene has recently emerged, one which cannot be said to stem from any single educational institution or region or be assigned to any predominant style. The exhibition "presentation | representation" portrays ten positions in contemporary German photography.

At the moment, photography is in a phase of transition from analogue to digital medium. With the technical changes comes a new understanding of both the medium itself and of the credibility that the medium still implies. The photographers selected for this show reflect the altered situation through their consciously subjective construction of authenticity

ARDEL Gallery of Modern Art will hold the art exhibition:

"p(L)ay attention"
By Pasut Kranrattanasuit
From June 17th to July 7th 2010 (Opening reception on June 21st: 06.30 PM)
At ARDEL Gallery of Modern Art



The “p(L)ay attention” art exhibition presents video installation art work inspired by the ordinary things of every day life (part of them was from London, England where the artist spent time doing his research and MFA.) The “Ordinary” things have become “Extraordinary” by the artist’s exercise of his intention in order to inspect the viewers’ self-inspection. Some hypnotic techniques are applied to help viewers experience some experiences and embrace themselves as part of the art work through their senses and feelings.

"Metropolitan Tales"
By Kiatanan Iamchan
From June 17th – July 31st 2010 (Opening reception on June 21st : 06.30 PM)
At ARDEL Gallery of Modern Art




“Metropolitan Tales” is an exhibition of acrylic paintings presenting the artist’s implication of innocent characteristic of human beings through the distinctive language of art. The exhibition tells the stories of people growing up in the fast-track of capitalist society. That behind those stories hidden with the awareness of the instability of emotions which constantly be observed from all the lost hopes, the fulfilled dreams or the traditional lifestyle that is gradually fading. The results have a chain effect on their fragile life and mind which has turned out to be many tales that are repeatedly retold in our joyful Metropolitan over and over again.
