The arrival of 20.35 Africa: An Anthology of Contemporary Poetry — curated by the Nigerian poets Ebenezer Agu, D.E. Benson, Chisom Okafor, Gbenga Adeoba and the visual artist Osinachi — pushed institutional boundaries in the modern African poetry scene.

Its debut issue was guest-edited by Safia Elhillo and Gbenga Adesina and featured thirty-two poets, including Romeo Oriogun, JK Anowe, Lilian Aujo, and Nkateko Priscilla and Cheswayo Mphanza who were recently in conversation.

The project’s second issue will be guest-edited by Yasmin Belkhyr, a contributor to the debut issue, and Kayo Chingonyi.
