  • About | Fetch Magazine

    Fetch was started in 2018 with the goal of capturing London's contemporary arts and culture scene. We have since grown into a vibrant platform featuring reviews, op-eds and interviews covering the finest and freshest that the city has to offer, from up-and-coming artists to local and visiting creatives to established curators and gallerists. We are an independent publication powered by a small team of young London-based writers and journalists specialising in long-form and intellectual reviews, analysis and criticism on the city's art scene. We were featured by the London Art Fair as a media partner in 2024 and our podcast, Fetch Features, reached the top 100 on Apple Podcasts upon release. Our first print issue is scheduled for September 2024 and we are beyond excited to continue sharing more long-form, intellectual angles on what the best city in the world has to offer.
