88Books is a Vancouver-based independent press specialized in artist's books by emerging artists from China. Committed to represent new voices from China. Committed to represent new voices from the younger generation, 88Books provides autonomy and freedom of expression to the participating artists and aims to foster the production of artist's books, a relatively new concept in China. Each book is conceived and created uniquely by the artist and produced in the Vancouver studio.

In the inaugural series, 88Books is releasing ten books by then up and coming photo-based artists who are making waves in the Chinese scene. As the country opens up, the artists are unraveling the influx of ideas and the possibilities in individual expression. Without the burden of market concerns and enjoying the newfound freedom, the younger generation often works against traditions and the mainstream, in search for their own language and personal take on art and life in China and beyond.
