After the closure of its Ekkamai space early this year, Toot Yung Gallery organizes its first “nomad project,” a seven-day solo exhibition/block party in Chinatown’s Soi Nana. Dutch artist Daan Botlek exhibits large-scale paintings, posters, silkscreen prints and laser cut art objects over three art spaces.

The opening party will see Cho Why turn into a rooftop cocktail bar, El Chiringuito roll out special tapas, more food from street vendors and music from DJ Marine Caillat. New venue The Food Court will also be a part of the exhibition.

Dates: Opens Mar 14 at 6pm, runs through Mar 22
