This catalogue was published on the occasion of the opening of Moving on Asia, an annual series of exhibitions, seminars, and publications on the contemporary issues of video art in the region organised by the Asia Curator Network in 2013. This book presents colour plates of works by participating artists from 2004 to 2013, along with their biographical information, curatorial notes, and artist's statements. 

'Along with the change of social, cultural paradigms and globalization in the 1980s, a wide variety of international art events and the biennale system seem to stuck in a rut combined with art capital. I feel this is the time to explore an alternative international platform system. The Asia Curator Network makes a small defiant attempt to attain this through this Moving on Asia project. Through the successful staging of Moving on Asia, we aspire to build a new cultural identity in the "glocal era" of the 21st century and break down stereotypes of Asian culture." - Jinsuk Suh, from introduction. 

Only the artists with an Asian background are listed below. Non-Asian participating artists include; Daniel Crooks, Ryszard Dabek, Sue Dodd, Benjamin Ducroz, Sophie Ernst, Silvana Mangano & Gabriella Mangano, Angelica Mesiti, Tess Milne, Arlo Mountford, Ana Prvacki, Dominic Redfern, Van Sowerwine, Asli Sungu, and Kellie Wells.
