'The book From a History of Exhibitions Towards a Future of Exhibition-Making: China and Southeast Asia is the result of ongoing assembly platforms with the same name, organised and initiated by Biljana Ciric and hosted by St Paul St Gallery AUT (2013), Rockbund Art Museum (2018), and Guangdong Times Museum (2019). The texts presented in this book are researched by different writers, curators, art practitioners in the region that revisit importance of exhibitions as a form and medium.

The contributions in this book explore how exhibitions can be read and understood across different social and cultural contexts, highlighting differences within the region, whilst also inviting new approaches and methodologies to pin-point areas for comparative forms of research. The book draws further awareness towards the specificity and diversity of practices found within Asia—thereby looking to contribute decisively towards a (re)mapping of exhibition practices and histories using the different perspectives and local contexts found in this region.' - from the back cover
