Veerachan Usahanun is one of Thailand\u2019s most esteemed artists,<\/p>\n
admired by distinguished Asian and European art critics and collectors for his powerfully poignant paintings , including stunningly detailed fantasy portraits and infinitely intricate representations of the Hindi deity \u201c Ganesha.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Veerachan hails from Uttaradit province in the north of Thailand. He studied at the College of Fine Arts in Bangkok before moving to Vienna, Austria, where he worked as a professional artist mentoring several of Europe\u2019s most respected members of the European art community.<\/span><\/p>\n Eleven years later, Veerachan returned to his homeland, and in 2000, held an exhibition of \u201cThe Fantasy Portraits\u201d at Gaysorn Plaza in Bangkok. In 2002 , Veerachan unveiled his largest fantasy portrait to date , a four – meter – high sculpture painting titled \u201c The Three Worlds\u201d, which was commissioned by The Private Museum of Contemporary Arts in Bangkok. The massive and intricate sculpture portrait on teakwood panels took three years to complete.<\/p>\n Master Veerachan then embarked on a unique series of works titled \u201c The Miracles of Ganesha \u201d, depicting the Hindu elephantine deity Ganesha in contemporary recreations of the god\u2019s traditional postures. The collection now numbers 17 original works on canvas and wood.<\/p>\n Veerachan\u2019s contemporary depictions of Ganesha are powerful, stunning, erotic and thought provoking, and have further solidified his reputation among the world\u2019s elite art collectors as one of Asia\u2019s finest living artists.<\/p>\n The appeal of Veerachan\u2019s works lie in the way they inspire and comfort their owners, offering new insight and answers to life\u2019s most profound questions and quandaries with each new viewing.<\/p>\n Veerachan\u2019s depictions of Ganesha appeal to all, regardless of any religious preconceptions, because what they depict are facets of human nature which are familiar to us all yet often suppressed.<\/p>\n Anyone who experiences Master Veerachan\u2019s art is inspired, awed and given a new outlook on life ; however, only a fortunate few can ever claim ownership of an original by one of Asia\u2019s most significant master artists of this age.<\/p>\n Presently Veerachan is based in phuket, working from his studio and gallery near Bang Tao Beach, where visitors are welcome to view The Miracles of Ganesha collection and The Fantasy Portraits. Here, Veerachan draws on the inspiration offered by the sea and tropical surroundings, and continues to produce \u201c Miracle \u201c works of art.<\/p>\n “Paintings & Drawings Exhibition” <\/strong> Veerachan Usahanun is one of Thailand\u2019s most esteemed artists,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23939,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1128],"class_list":["post-23938","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art-exhibition","tag-veerachan-usahanun"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23938","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=23938"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23938\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24210,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23938\/revisions\/24210"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/23939"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=23938"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=23938"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=23938"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.artbangkok.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Veerachan-Usahanun31.jpg\" "\\"Veerachan-Usahanun\\"")
