Damrong WONG-UPARAJ : A Retrospective of Versatility and Discipline

This exhibition presents an expansive visual and biographical examination into the works of Assistant Professor Damrong Wong-Uparaj (1936-2002), awarded 1999’s National Artist title in the painting category and whose multi-disciplinary abilities were self-nurtured by his own determination to learn and explore. His career spanned over 40 years, each of which was spent dedicated to the development and progress of Thai Art. Aside from his main role as an artist, Damrong was also a teaching and lecturing professor, a writer, a curator, a director for art centres and an art conservator, all of which contributed to introducing “Visual Arts” to the general public in Thailand.
