The Room We Make
Venue: Ming Artspace
Exhibition Dates: 3 – 30 November
A group exhibition on how home, family, identity and inherited culture shape who we become. Set against Chinese heritage and diverse family structures, the works in photography, painting, drawing, textile and installation look at what we inherit, what we choose to transform and what we create for ourselves, treating home as a space that is continuously made and redefined. With Arunrat Kosigosol, Panniphat Jumpaengjan, Rojchanintr Lertpatchrakoolsri, Sarocha Wichit and Vichai Imsuksom, curated by Sophirat Muangkum. Opening reception: 3 November (6:00 PM onwards).

The Permanent Temporary
Venue: Bangkok 1899
Exhibition Dates: 4 – 26 November
Teetuch Hongkhongkha collects plastic bags, used for minutes and then thrown away, and melts them into layered wall hangings that read like dense, luminous textiles. Presented by Warin Lab Contemporary and Creative Migration in the gallery room of Bangkok 1899, a house that has stood since 1899, the show sets a home built to last against a material never meant to last that refuses to disappear. Open 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM, closed on Mondays.

MYTHOPOEIA เนร (มิธ)
Venue: QURO Gallery
Exhibition Dates: 5 November – 2 February
The inaugural exhibition of QURO Gallery, the new space at QURO Bangkok Riverside on Phra Arthit Road (formerly 10 10 Art Space), takes myth-making as a lens on the practices of seven Thai contemporary artists: Ati Kongsuk, Chulayarnnon Siriphol, Everyday Architect Design Studio, KULTX, Pannaphan Yodmanee, TRK and Wasinburee Supanichvoraparch. Curated by Nisa Jewcharoen, the show asks how the myths of our time are made, by whom and to what end. The public opening night includes a ritual performance by KULTX at 7:00 PM, followed by a block party with Kaijo Brother. Opening reception: 5 November (6:00 PM – 11:00 PM).
Going Astray
Venue: Bangkok Kunsthalle
Exhibition Dates: 6 November – 17 January
Taking its title from the first Thai sound film, made in 1932 and now largely lost, Braty Collective explores collective forgetting through what remains of it: its soundtrack, photographs and newspaper records of the lawsuit that surrounded its release. Works in sound, moving image and painting consider how a film that can no longer be seen continues to live in cultural memory. Part of Open Ground, Bangkok Kunsthalle’s program for experimental and emerging Thai artists and curators. Opening reception: 6 November (6:00 PM onwards), with “Memorial Choir”, a traditional sound performance, at 6:30 PM.
Artistic Appropriation of Media Images: Workshop with Margret Eicher
Venue: Goethe-Institut Thailand
Workshop: 6 November (12:00 PM – 3:00 PM)
German artist Margret Eicher, whose large digital tapestries mix art history, pop culture and media imagery and are on show at the National Museum for the Bangkok Art Biennale, leads a workshop on the artistic appropriation of media images. Part of the Goethe-Institut’s digital art program, organised with BAB 2026. Places are by application (deadline 3 November on the Goethe-Institut website).
Cry on Cue (ฉากเรียกน้ำตา)
Venue: 6060 Arts Space
Exhibition Dates: 6 – 28 November
Tangmo Ladapha Sophonkunkit turns a recurring dream, a robot housemaid who keeps pouring water into her own eyes until she dies, into installation and live performance. The installation is a bare stage set that visitors can step into, while in the performance the artist carries out her mission of (not) working. Curated by Suphon Niamkamnoet and Amata Chotiphan. Open Monday to Saturday, 12:00 PM – 8:00 PM. Opening reception: 6 November (5:00 PM onwards).
No Permission Exhibition
Venue: BKK Collective Studio
Exhibition Dates: 7 – 29 November
Local artists and musicians stage a free-to-exhibit show as a protest against submission fees and gallery commissions that put up barriers for emerging artists. Visual art and live music share the space on Rama 4 Road, near MRT Khlong Toei. Opening reception: 7 November (7:00 PM onwards).
Caught in the Furze – The Wren
Venue: Bangkok Art and Cultural Center (BACC)
Performance: 7 November (1:00 PM – 3:00 PM)
A second chance to catch Amanda Coogan’s Bangkok Art Biennale performance at BACC.

Free admission: come early and stay as the work unfolds.
Kemurimi Kōro: Endō Smoke Viewing
Venue: Saratta Space
Performance: 7 November (4:00 PM – 4:30 PM)

The Pool’s Pond Delight
Venue: TARS Unlimited
Exhibition Dates: 7 November – 13 December
French artist Hadrien Gérenton builds an imagined landscape of sculptures where plants, animals, human figures and domestic objects coexist. Lotus pods, tropical seeds and withered flowers are cast and transformed into new materials and scales, blurring the line between the organic and the artificial, attraction and danger, growth and decay. At THIS IS UNLIMITED, Song Wat. Opening reception: 7 November (5:00 PM – 8:00 PM).
Still Life, Still Painting – A Landscape Painting Workshop Part 2
Venue: Dib Bangkok
Workshop: 7 November (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM)
A guided painting workshop that invites participants to observe the gardens and architecture of Dib Bangkok and decide what to frame, what to leave out and where the eye should rest. A slow exercise in looking that turns an everyday scene into a subject of attention. Booking via the Dib Bangkok website.
