Asia 8 CollectorÆs Boxed Set

In the spring of 2016 the exhibition ô1001 Steidl Booksö was held at DECK in Singapore, an independent platform for art and photography. On the occasion of the exhibition artists from across Asia were invited to submit book dummies for the Steidl Book Award Asia. A single award was planned, but from the many books Gerhard Steidl finally chose eight: ôThe submissions were all so strong, so surprising and varied, that it would have been unfair to just choose one.ö Together with the co-founder and director of DECK Gwen Lee, and the creative director of WERK Theseus Chan, the eight photographers came to Steidl in G÷ttingen in January 2017 to make their books.
