This catalogue was published in conjunction with the group exhibition 'Distinguished Encounters' at Sombat Permpoon Gallery, Bangkok, held from February to April 2009.
'Distinguished Encounters' brings together works by Thai artists who came of age under the influence of modernism with a selection that more immediately fits notions of the contemporary. This exhibition poses questions about how we understand ideas of modern and contemporary in terms of individual Thai artists, the relationships these artists can have with each other, canonical theories, and the role of the audience in determining the significance of artworks.
Biographies included.
