In Next Issue December 2025

In December, as always, we shall be producing our annual guide to the best books from the Asian and Islamic art worlds published in 2025, including fiction, reference, history, art, travel and miscellaneous books that are hard to categorise, but would be a shame if you missed them during the year.

Elsewhere in the issue, we look at sculpture from Assam, representations of the tiger in East Asian art, and the culture and art of Mongolia.

We also explore the history of Chinese silk, and the art and design of Asian games, and Manga in San Francisco.

And, of course, there are our regular pages on exhibitions, auction news, gallery shows and Islamic Arts Diary.
