The paintings of contemporary Thai artist Pichai Nirand (b. 1936)
are a vivid exploration of the interplay between Thailand's
Buddhist roots and its modern aspirations and struggles. Pichai
engages fully with the world and belief system around him.
Accompanying the full-color paintings is an incisive examination of
the Thai moral and social themes of Pichai's paintings in terms of
the Buddhist cycle of life. Philip Constable's sensitive analysis
of the social, political, economic, and moral dimensions affecting
the artist, coupled with careful reference to other contemporary
Thai artists, illuminates the deep meaning and expression behind
each painting. This book showcases a celebrated Thai artist who has
spent a lifetime providing a Thai Buddhist perspective on the
dilemmas and contradictions of the late twentieth and early
twenty-first centuries.
