"This exhibition is inspired by stories surrounding His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej, commencing with His Majesty's initial speech about building his own happiness from discovering the cause of his beloved Thai people's sufferings. Another inspiration is the numbers; 89 years of His Majesty's age, 70 years of His reign, 70 years of searching and discovering ways to alleviate the sufferings of the Thai people, which became manifested in his royal initiative projects, in all 4,447 projects. During the 70 years of His reign, having seen first hand the many causes of Thai people's sufferings, His Majesty initiated The King's Philosophy, 23 Working Principles, which included the Suffiency Economy concept, the values of perseverance, duty, unity, integrity and the pure commitment theory. All of these are my inspirations for this exhibition. And I also plan to develop 1 more art piece on the date of the Royal Cremation of which it will be displayed here in this exhibition after October 26th," said Honorary Professor Preecha Thaothong, national artist in visual arts (painting).

The exhibition of Dharma, Nature and Dharma Arts and the 23 Working Principles of The Great King Bhumibol comprises;

- Concluding all His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej's profound and remarkable aptitude into artworks that are full of faith and then expressing them in my personal interpretation.

- Concluding all His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej's profound and remarkable aptitude into artworks utilizing various conceptions, techniques, and methods of my personal interpretation.

- Concluding all His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej's profound and remarkable aptitude into artworks in art exhibition form which it is open for Thai and foreign people. With hope, this humble historical exhibition will bring peace and joy to Thai people."

"Most of the artworks are from two distinct periods, the first set created before October 13, 2016 and the second set, created after October 14, 2016. Altogether, there are 109 pieces. Since October 13, 2016; I have worked every day without knowing that there will be an exhibition. I willingly kept working with many elements crystalized from my entire working life in the grace of His Majesty the late King Rama IX. For the prior artworks, I have asked the artists to show their works in the exhibition as well. The significant factor in this exhibition is there are no sponsors, the exhibition received generous support from Crowdfunding which is quite new to me. My team explained crowd-funding as a chance for Thai people all over the world to participate and be a part of holding this exhibition as they wish, a new concept of broadening the opportunity to participate and contribute. However, this event would not happen without the support from the Queen Sirikit Gallery, the National Research Council of Thailand and the Thai Red Cross Society - I gratefully thank them and I would like to thank all the Thai people around the world who have given their support to this historic exhibition, which i consider the most important and significant exhibition of my life." summarized by the honorary professor Preecha Taothong, national artist in visual arts (painting).

Dr. Sirikul Laukaikul, the exhibition manager, explained more about the concept of this exhibition "Previously we had a meeting with Prof. Preecha. He showed us many paintings along with the stories, inspirations, meanings, principles which are all about and derived from our beloved King's, the Great King Bhumibol Adulyadej, lifetime dedication towards the nation and Thai people. I wished strongly for all of Thai people to learn all the deeds and the goodness that our late King had done for us and, at the same time, to be a part of this humble recognition towards our Great King Bhumibol. So, I have volunteered to help arranging the exhibition utilizing the Crowdsourcing and Crowdfunding platforms. We have received good responses from everyone we turn to. This exhibition is not supported by any single organizations, but by all Thai people.
