Why is it feminine?

Exposition is feminine in French because it derives from the Latin feminine noun "expositio." In Latin, nouns ending in -io were typically feminine (following the third declension), and this feminine gender was preserved when the word entered French. French regularly maintains the gender of Latin-derived nouns, so "exposition" remains feminine.
