2023年2月，曼彻斯特博物馆开设了新的南亚画廊。由一个集体共同策划-“来自曼彻斯特及其周边地区的英国亚洲社区的个人和其他专家”，画廊包含了一种独特的策展精神，并挑战了博物馆空间中传统的空间并列。这篇评论探讨了画廊的收藏和空间体验，研究了内容和策展优先级之间的关系。该画廊以其独特的方式讲述了一个民族的大型全球事件的历史，追溯了日常生活与帝国之间的关系，以及财产与手工艺品之间的关系。然而，这也带来了南亚“全球”联系的某些空白，以及未来探索代表性不足的声音的机会的必要性。
In February 2023, the Manchester Museum opened its new South Asia Gallery. Co-curated by a collective - 'individuals from British Asian communities in and around Manchester and fellow experts', the gallery encapsulates a unique curatorial spirit, and challenges traditional spatial juxtapositions in museum spaces. This review explores the collection and spatial experience of the gallery, examining the relationship between content and curatorial priorities. The gallery stands out in its unique telling of a people's history of large-scale global events, in the ways it traces the relationship between the everyday and empire, and between belongings and artefacts. This however brings with it certain lacunas in the 'global' connections of South Asia, and the need for future opportunities to explore under-represented voices.
