“Through the Thai pavilion, the Culture Ministry aims to promote contemporary Thai architecture and culture to the world,” said Kitsayapong Siri, the ministry’s permanent secretary. The prominent festival will also present architecture projects by 71 participants curated by Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara. Inspired by the floating market, Culture Ministry’s Office of Contemporary Art and Culture and Architect Siam Association will present the pavilion under the theme “Blissfully yours”. “We will promote our Thailand Biennale 2018 which will be held in Krabi from November 2 to February 28, 2019,” he added. Thailand has been participating Venice Art Biennale since 2003 and the Venice Architecture Biennale since 2010.
