Art Exhibition
of Wit Pimkanchanapong & Porntaweesak Rimsakul
Exhibited works at the"Have We Met" in Tokyo

The Japan Foundation, Bangkok will organize a unique art exhibition of two young promising Thai artists called "Art Exhibition of Wit Pimkanchanapong & Porntaweesak Rimsakul ---Exhibited works at the "Have We Met" in Tokyo---".

From December 11 last year to January 30 this year in Tokyo "Have We Met?"Exhibition was held with the participation of young curators and artists of India, Indonesia, Thailand and Japan in order to promote interchange and network of curators and artists of the young generation in Asian countries.

This exhibition will show works by two Thai artists from the Tokyo exhibition and provide people here the opportunity to get a glimpse of Thai contemporary art by young people.

Mr. Wit Pimkanchanapong was born in 1976. He is one of the few Thais who can be appropriately labeled a "media artist". His exhibited work this time is Still Animations, which consist of personal photographs-- still but moving at the same time--of his family members.

Mr. Porntaweesak Rimsakul was born in 1979. He is a true contemporary artist in the sense that he is young and his work is generally the result of his reactions towards the confusing conditions of our times. His exhibited work this time is The Dinosaurs, an army of teakettles with pony legs and tails, which is humorous, handmade, cute, imaginative and fun to see!

Mr. Prabda Yoon was born in 1973. He is an acclaimed writer, designer and painter. He won SEAWRITE Awards and had credit as a scriptwriter for the film 'Last Life in the Universe' which was screened in Japan.
