Abridged

Abridged We're a poetry/art magazine. We encourage poets/artists to investigate the articulation of ‘Abridged’ themes. We experiment continually.

Abridged aims to commission and publish contemporary/experimental poetry plus contemporary art freed from exhibition ties and especially commissioned for the magazine. For example our last few issues have been concerned with Time, Absence, Magnolia and Nostalgia. These themes focus on contemporary concerns in a rapidly changing society. We are offering an alternative and complete integration of poetry, art and design. We also stray into the exhibition format producing contemporary, innovative and challenging work accompanied by a free publication.

Poetry required!
