Picpus is a free magazine edited by Charles Asprey and Simon Grant. It carries articles from the art world, with a particular interest in historical curiosities, overlooked artists, arts and politics and is distributed through a selection of specialised art bookshops, galleries and libraries.
The format of Picpus is a folded down broadsheet, measuring 594x420mm (A1 size) which folds down to a 32pp A6 (105x148mm) finished size.

Picpus is printed quarterly and this is issue 22 issue published in Autumn last year in memory of Karsten Schubert, publisher and gallerist (1961-2019). It is an edition of 4000 copies. Below shows the broadsheet folded out flat...
...and the reverse side
Picpus is printed on Redeem 100% Recycled 80gsm and is printed offset litho, CMYK on both sides and as you can see from the detail image below the print result is excellent.
Design is by Studio Ard and is printed by Push Print, who have printed every issue since it's inception. The publication is held together with a small round sticker with serrated middle, holding it flat.
