Join us for a new series of Virtual Studio Visits featuring a different artist each week. Today, we are presenting our “pilot” episode of the series with MOCA Director Klaus Biesenbach and artist Korakrit Arunanondchai. For this first digital visit, Biesenbach, who is in Los Angeles, will take us to the studio of Arunanondchai in Bangkok. This online talk is pre-recorded and available on our YouTube channel.

About the artist:
Korakrit Arunanondchai (b. 1986, Thailand) lives and works in New York and Bangkok. The artist’s multi-layered practice – which includes film-making, painting, installation and performance – reflects on technology and spirituality, the accumulation of data, the fragility of memory and the interfaces between world history and personal experience, and the Anthropocene. Paintings in Arunanondchai’s universe never go alone: they are autonomous objects, but they belong in relation–physical and spiritual–to everything else. Arunanondchai’s solo exhibitions include MoMA PS1, NY; Seccession, Vienna; Palais de Tokyo, Paris and UCCA, Beijing. His work has been included at Venice Biennale, Whitney Biennale and Dhaka Art Summit. Upcoming shows include Migros Museum, Zurich; Hamburger Banhof, Berlin and Gwangju Biennale.
