From the grand institutions to tiny independent spaces — Bangkok's contemporary art scene.
The most accessible public gallery — 11 floors, free entry, rotating exhibitions; the level of work varies but is often genuinely excellent.
River City Bangkok has several galleries selling Thai art, antiques, and contemporary pieces — commercial but quality; the building itself is worth visiting.
Warehouse 30, Speedy Grandma, Tentacles, and several others have transformed old Charoen Krung buildings into Bangkok's most interesting gallery cluster.
North Bangkok, 5 floors, serious Thai contemporary collection — requires a half-day and a taxi but the most curated collection in the city.
Free, frequently excellent, run by Thailand's top fine arts university — the most overlooked good gallery in Bangkok.
BACC and the Charoen Krung cluster both work well as half-day routes on their own, given how close individual venues sit to each other — check current exhibitions before setting out, since smaller galleries rotate frequently.
