Hue & Cry

by Chloe Lane (Editor), Lawrence Patchett (Editor)

Hue & Cry is a Wellington-based art and literary journal. Increasingly recognised as a distinctive voice in the New Zealand art and literary scene, the journal exists to promote emergent artists and writers, and to encourage communication within and between the art and literary communities throughout New Zealand. Offset printed, we take a curatorial approach to contributions as a whole, organising the journal as an aesthetic space. In August 2012, Hue & Cry launched a publishing arm, Hue & Cry Press.

Hue & Cry is published and edited by Chloe Lane, with Lawrence Patchett as literary co-editor and Andrea Bell as art editor, and designed by The International Office.

Reviews

[Kelvin · Rating 3 out of 5]

I enjoyed this rather spacious journal. It took me some time to get used to the format, the luxury of so much space on the page was new to me.
The highlight of the collection was 'Absolutely Flying' by Ashleigh Young, she had me hooked by the second sentence. The journal was let down a little by its last two installments. But overall, a very good read.
