Alternatives Guide

The Japan Foundation publishes biannually a critical guide to the asian art scene. I picked up a copy while in Tokyo.

"This guidebook was compiled for readers who may want to visit Asian cities to see the local contemporary art scene, those who are looking for partners and collaborators for an exchange program with arts professionals, those who are carrying out research, and many others who are interested in Asia and would like to access local information."

170 contemporary art spaces in 16 countries/region in the Asia-Pacific region (China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Australia), with (1) overview text introducing the contemporary art scene in each country, (2) outline of each contemporary art spaces with contact information, and (3) art museum and commercial gallery supplement for selected countries.

It's better than an american express card, which, I don't have.
