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.
