THERE’S MORE to the Army Internal Audit Office in Bangkok than just requests for government services. Professor Silpa Bhirasri – revered as the father of Thai modern art – once lived in this neo-Renaissance building. Samples of his masterpieces are on view along with books detailing his contribution to Thai art. The department registered the site for its historical value in 1978, the year before the Army Internal Audit Office moved in. Chatchanok came along at the beginning of this year, signed a three-year contract with the Army office, and is drumming up interest again.
