"Before deciding to make such a magazine about Chinese art publishing, we spent time looking back at the history of self-publishing and artists’ books practices in China. This history phase could be long, could be short, or hasn’t even really started. Following the memory of our growth, we tried to salvage the early Chinese art publications from the ocean of the Internet, revealing the history of freedom and romance, and dive into China’s most vibrant independent music scene.

In the first issue of P_PAL, the professional role and publishing process involved in art publishing serves as the narrative of the magazine, giving a glimpse into publishing process. In this magazine, you can read the art book news on the map of Hong Kong; Guides on the production, distribution, and printing of books, especially Risograph, screen printing, and other art printing methods; An chronological research report on Chinese art publishing, etc." — art book in China
