‘Bringing the creative community together since 1980’

Now in its 45th(!) year, Creative Review’s Winter 2025 edition pauses for some stock-taking. Across three distinct sections–Opinions, Visions and Influences–‘The New Issue’ gathers reflections from creative leaders on the state of the world, spotlights emerging voices shaping the industry, honours the figures who defined the 2025 creative landscape and heralds the magazine’s ‘own new dawn’, following its acquisition by Haymarket Media Group. On the cover: a disarming close-up from photographer Anh Nguyen’s ‘The Kitchen God’ series, part of the Vietnamese artist’s wider examination of ‘cultural codes, identity and community’. Inside, discover the intricate and tactile paper designs of Kingston University graduates Ivy Webb and Aidan Pinkney (‘studio Ivy/Aidan’) and travel back in time with Daniel Jurman’s ‘technostalgia’ 3D animations.
