BMA failure to contribute to BACC funding this year has left it struggling financially, but it still has plenty of supporters, including the Thai affiliate of multinational conglomerate B Grimm. “We want to raise funds for the BACC because it’s facing a financial crisis,” curator Somsuda Piamsumrit told The Nation. In August, the Performative Art Festival resumes with the premieres of three interdisciplinary works. September brings the third annual “Early Years Project”, and October the start of the inaugural Bangkok Art Biennale and the 20th annual performing arts festival Asiatopia. But there will be no complementary programmes to inform, educate and inspire and the BACC will be less vibrant.
