Islamic art in Southeast Asia had not been the focus of studies on Islamic art history for a long while. This lack of attention is exemplified by the absence of a chapter on Southeast Asia in two of the most basic works on Islamic art, Islamic Art and Architecture 650-1250, published in 2001 and The Art and Architecture on Islam 1250-1800, published in 1994. However, there has been growing interest in the subject in the last decade; in 2005, Crescent Moon: Islamic Art and Civilisation in Southeast Asia was published based on an exhibition at the Art Gallery of South Australia. In the same year, The Message and the Monsoon: Islamic Art of Southeast Asia was published by the Islamic Art Museum Malaysia that frequently organizes Islamic art exhibitions. More recently, in 2012, the Asian Civilisations Museum, Singapore held a special exhibition “Islamic Arts from Southeast Asia.” Yet these exhibitions and publications on Islamic art in Southeast Asia do not receive enough attention and therefore recent discussions on how Islamic art objects have been exhibited excludes the case in Southeast Asia. For instance, a recent conference-based book entitled Islamic Art and the Museum: Approaches to Art and Archeology of the Muslim World in the Twenty-First Century does not mention how Islamic art objects were collected and exhibited in Southeast Asia. Over the past few years, the author visited Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Singapore, and Bandar Seri Begawan in Brunei to explore what kind of Islamic art objects were on public display and how they were exhibited. This brief report is based on the author’s visits to an institute, several museums, and mosques in Jakarta in the summer of 2014. 1. The National Museum of Indonesia
