“Jerome Bel and Pichet Klunchun couldn’t have less in common if they tried. One is a conceptual French choreographer, the other a traditional Thai dancer. In ”Pichet Klunchun and Myself”, the pair face each other on a bare stage – just two men sitting on the floor with a laptop between them – demonstrating the disparity of their cultures by grilling one another with the dexterity of chess players and punctuating their points with dance. By the end, their differences swirl down a drain of their own making. It’s a stunning work of art – complex and curious, full of rigor, humor and esoteric ideas, yet astoundingly accessible.”
– Gia Kourlas, “The Thai that Binds”, Time Out New York, 2007
