Thai Forms seeks out expressions of art still in existence, although traditional artistic forms are threatened more and more each day. Whatever their appearance and purpose, and to whichever level of life these objects belong, they are all characteristically Thai, reflecting Thai traditions and mentality. Jean-Michel Beurdeley and the photographer Hans Hinz have succeeded admirably in capturing Thai design in its very essence.
