Issue 131 February 2019
Liam Casey makes a good point in this month’s artist interview, framing February’s featured artist Ellen Jewett as a ‘superrealist’ sculptor. It’s impossible to convey the detail of the Canada- based artist’s work on mere paper, but hopefully the first print issue of Now Then in 2019 gives you a taste.
This month it was our great pleasure to interview the punk-rock bard Dr John Cooper Clarke, Leonore Wheatley of Sheffield- Manchester ‘nerd disco’ outfit International Teachers of Pop,and Bambos Georgiou of Sheffield Comics Network. Elsewhere,I encourage you to read Rachael Hand’s piece on Sheffield’s proposed Clean Air Zone and Martin Currie’s piece on the ‘Pitsmoor Renaissance’.Now Then has an open submissions policy, which means anyone can pitch ideas to us. If you’ve got something you want to say on these pages, get in touch. If you just fancy trying your hand at writing, we’re all ears.
