N2 - In recent years, there has been various initiatives to curate and historicize the photobooks in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong (HK) through the intervention of exhibition-making. The roundtable in this chapter brings together four photo practitioners from Yogyakarta, Kuala Lumpur, HK and Hanoi who, in the past decade, have each curated (or co-curated) exhibitions of photobooks and photo publications. In an inter-referencing manner, the roundtable charts the different ways in which the culture of photobooks has become embedded across the region. It surfaces some of the issues that confronted the practitioners in curating photobooks, including the challenges of making publications available and accessible, the place of periodicals and zines in the current photobook craze, and the limits of canon-making in the praxis of photography across the region.
