2HB

Now in its third year, 2HB is a quarterly publication dedicated to creative and experimental writing in contemporary art.  Until Volume 12, 2HB was edited by Louise Shelley, Participatory Projects Co-ordinator, The Showroom, London and Francis McKee, Director, CCA.  From Volume 13 onwards, Jamie Kenyon, Programmer, CCA  replaces Louise Shelley as co-editor with Francis McKee.
 
Submissions from interested writers are now welcome for 2HB Volume 13.

The selection process focuses on creative writing or fiction with a critical awareness of issues. A journal for experimental art writing, 2HB facilitates a discursive space for writing in contemporary art practice and creates a platform for artists, writers and theorists to realise work that might not otherwise be published.

Inspired by publications such as New York’s Dot Dot Dot and Cabinet Magazine and The Netherlands' F.R David, 2HB is the first such project to come out of a contemporary art institution in Scotland.

2HB Volumes 1-9 are available from the CCA for £3 each. Writers include:  Laura Aldridge / Becky Beasley / Derek Beaulieu / Will Bradley / Jenny Brownrigg / Ruth Buchanan / Rachel Carey / Rosie Cooper / Laura Edbrook / Paul Elliman / Kathryn Elkin / Chris Evans / Sarah Godfrey / Karl Holmqvist / Alex Impey / Alex Finlay / Achim Lengerer / Sarah Lowndes / Kate Morrell / Conal McStravick / Ewan Morrison / Mick Peter / Charlotte Prodger / Audrey Reynolds / Steve Rushton / Laura Simpson / Laura Smith / Kathrine Sowerby / Frances Stark / Ben Starky / Nick Thurston Cara Tolmie / Sarah Tripp / Thomas Walker / Emmett Walsh / Lee Welch / Rebecca Wilcox / Annie Wu / Rehana Zaman / Tirdad Zolghadr
