For the first time in over a century, an extensive collection of rare works by Suchao Sisganes, one of Thailand’s most significant Expressionist artists, is brought together in this exhibition. Having lived a life marked by profound hardship, Suchao is often referred to as the “Vincent van Gogh of Thailand.” Presented by Museum Pier in collaboration with happening, the exhibition features not only Suchao’s invaluable works but also new interpretations by five contemporary artists: Pi-Near, Lychee Chai, OLE, 3PUCK and Palim, whose works illustrate episodes from Suchao’s life through their own artistic perspectives.
An exhibition celebrating the 100th anniversary of Suchao Sisganes, taking audiences on a journey from his youth to the twilight of his life, the exhibition brings together works spanning his entire artistic career, from his earliest creations to his final paintings. Alongside his own works, the exhibition presents art that surrounded and inspired him, offering a glimpse into the artistic landscape of his time and significant events in his life.
This exhibition invites audiences on a journey to discover an artist who devoted his entire life to art, spending his days and nights, year after year, guided by an unwavering belief in his vision. Within the confines of a small, enclosed room, he continued to create, holding on to the hope that one day others might come to see the entire world as he did through his eyes, his soul, and the very tips of his brushes.
