Few institutions have had as profound an impact on artists, curators and collectors worldwide as the Delfina Foundation. The London-based nonprofit was founded in 2007 by the charismatic Spanish-born philanthropist Delfina Entrecanales. A key player in the city’s art scene, she was passionate about funding artists and providing them with studio spaces. Today, the foundation has become a hub not only for artists but also for collectors and curators from across the globe.

Within less than a year, Bangkok Kunsthalle has cemented itself as one of Thailand’s leading art institutions. Bangkok-based art patron Marisa Chearavanont opened the multidisciplinary space in January, taking over an abandoned printing house in Chinatown. Besides mounting experimental exhibitions, the space hosts artist residency program as well as residencies for curators. The Kunsthalle is part of an ambitious not-for-profit enterprise Khao Yai Art, helmed by Founding Director Stefano Rabolli Pansera. We spoke with Pansera to learn more about the organisation’s activities in Thailand and the film program he is curating for ART SG.
