The video series ‘Honoring Artists’ is to archive, preserve, promote and disseminate art and cultural works by documenting biography, body of knowledge, and creative works in the art or music through highly acclaimed Thai artists or musicians.  In 2019-2020 video recording on life and work of the following artists has been completed:

  • Thai traditional music artist: Dr. Sirichaichan Fachamroon, National Artist in Thai Performing Arts (Thai Music)
  • Western music artist:  Asst. Prof. Col. Choochart Pitaksakorn, National Artist in Performing Arts (Western Music)
  • Artist: Phansakdi Chakkaphak, watercolor artist
  • Thai Architect: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pinyo Suwankiri, National Artist in Visual Arts (Architecture)

The artists are interviewed on videos and broadcasted on social media, which is a mainstream media that is accessible to a large pool of audience in a short time.  The videos are also used in related exhibitions at Chulalongkorn University.

The video series Honoring Artists is an important step of the university’s mission in preserving and continuing the country’s art and cultural heritage.
