Modern Art in Thailand: Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries

by Apinan Poshyananda

This book offers, for the first time, a comprehensive account of the development of modern art in Thailand. Its central focus is to trace the main thread of eclecticism that characterizes modern Thai art, and to show how foreign influences, as well as Buddhism, local traditions, and folk cultures, served as catalysts in the development of styles.
