And Still, Another After opens on 10 October

The exhibition begins on 10 October 2026 and remains on view through 29 March 2027. It is presented by the Jim Thompson Art Center, which occupies the same compound as the museum.

Curated by Rinrada Na Chiangmai, the group exhibition considers economic crisis, migration, ecological transformation and changing systems of labour in Thailand and Southeast Asia. The official programme names artists including Bhumikorn Kongtaveelert, Anna Golubkova, Pitchada Poolsawad, Piyatida Piyamassakul, Pakapat Limlertphonboon, Sareena Sattapon, Nat Setthana, Marisa Srijunpleang and PLERN VERN. The official exhibition page confirms the dates and curator.

The exhibition extends a compound built from six Thai houses

The museum is the former Bangkok home of James H.W. Thompson, an American architect and collector of Asian art. In 1958-59, he reassembled six old Thai houses on the site, including buildings moved from different parts of Thailand.

The residence stands on teak pillars above the ground and is surrounded by a tropical garden. Thompson moved into the completed house on 3 April 1959. The house and collection later passed to the James H.W. Thompson Foundation, which operates the museum and records the property as a national museum. The foundation’s history of the Thai house places the new exhibition beside a residence created more than six decades ago.

From the house museum to the Art Center

The date of the exhibition gives visitors a new contemporary-art programme within the same cultural site as the historic residence. The official museum page identifies the Art Center as part of the same compound and lists the address as 6 Soi Kasemsan 2, Rama 1 Road, Bangkok. The museum’s visitor information also confirms that the main house is visited with a guide.
