180 x 285mm, 36 pages, Risograph printing, Saddle stitched, Softcover, 2026 Our inaugural issue brings together work from some of the most exciting writers and artists in Scotland and further afield: an interview with Lisette May Monroe on her Glasgow International show Hard Lines; an essay by Hannah Proctor about 2016, a profile of Glasgow’s own France-Lise McGurn, and a quasi-ethnographic account of attending a weekend of GI openings from poet Oli Hazzard in our regular section which asks a scene report of those not in that scene. Bumper editor Christopher Law explores the sometimes uneasy relationship between academia and arts spaces in his editorial. We also feature new writing from Akshi Singh, poems from Carle Gent, ekphrastic responses by Colin Herd to the new Dean Sameshima book. Then, mostly Glasgow International exhibition reviews by Gabriel Levine Breslin and the Bumper editors, a review of Iphgenia Baal’s Black Skulls by Evelyn Wh-ell and ending with artwork by Sue Tompkins. Edited by Leo Bussi, Caitlin Merrett King and Christopher Law. Published by
