The City as a Canvas
 

The Event

Thailand's Premier International Art Festival. Running from 29 October 2026 to 28 February 2027, the Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB) 2026 returns with its most compelling vision yet, centered on the profound theme “Angels & Mara”. This theme examines the dialectical tensions between goodness and adversity, light and darkness, hope and despair.

Across world traditions, angels represent divine messengers and virtuous ideals, whilst fallen angels embody corruption. In Buddhist philosophy, Mara signifies temptation, illusion, and the forces that obstruct spiritual peace. Set against the dynamic backdrop of Bangkok—traditionally known as the City of Angels—BAB 2026 gathers esteemed Thai and international artists to reflect upon contemporary global challenges, including environmental degradation, conflict, political division and social change. The city-wide festival spans historic temples, modern art centres and riverside landmarks, transforming Bangkok’s urban landscape into an immersive, living gallery that attracts curators, collectors and art lovers from around the globe.

Explore Bangkok’s Cultural Gems 

Beyond the formal exhibition venues, visiting the Biennale offers an invitation to immerse oneself in the rich heritage of Thailand: 

·         Temple and Heritage Discoveries: Take guided walking tours through Bangkok’s historic Rattanakosin district, where ancient architecture and revered temples frame contemporary installations.

·         Chao Phraya River Cruises: Travel between riverside art venues aboard private boats or heritage river craft, viewing the city skyline from its legendary waterway.

·         Traditional Thai Craft Workshops: Engage directly with local artisan traditions, from hand-loomed silk weaving and ceramic craft to traditional lacquer work.
