What We’re Looking For

We are seeking original stories with a clear visual angle. When pitching, please consider what makes this story unique, and why you would be the right person to tell it.

The writing that we publish is must be inviting and accessible to a non-art audience. At Jimmy Hornet we believe that art and visual culture should be open to all, and while we value expertise, we are looking for writers who can also effectively communicate their ideas to a diverse readership.

Article Types

OPINION
We are looking for bold new perspectives on issues that relate to the visual arts, written from a clearly articulated first-person perspective.
OBSERVATIONS
Choose a theme or trend to explore through numerous works of art, as well as in other forms of culture, such as television, cinema, fashion and music. Observation pieces often make unusual or surprising connections between seemingly disparate artists and the wider world. Please note that the selection of artworks in these pieces must be focused primarily on the contemporary scene.
INVESTIGATION
Our investigations take a look at aspects of the creative industry that are rarely considered, bringing together a range of perspectives from multiple interviewees.
SECRET HISTORY
These stories explore rarely-told pieces of visual history, often from outside of the mainstream, bringing surprising, remarkable and against-the-odds journeys into the light.
