For nearly 29 years, ArtAsiaPacific Magazine has been at the forefront of the powerful creative forces that shape contemporary art from Asia, the Pacific and the Middle East. Covering the latest in contemporary visual culture, ArtAsiaPacific is published six times a year in Hong Kong, with editorial desks in over 30 countries around the world. The dominant artistic influence in the world today—and for many years to come emanates from the vast territory that lies between Turkey and the Pacific island of New Zealand that we call the Asia-Pacific. This territory includes India, China, Japan, Qatar, Australia, Thailand, Pakistan, Korea, Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates, whose combined populations make up an amazing half of the world’s total population. Additionally, the Asia-Pacific region includes Myanmar, Cambodia, and Uzbekistan; places hitherto overlooked, but which like their gigantic neighbors, are producing cutting-edge art—film, fashion, photography, architecture and design—of stunning and unexpected quality.
