SurVision is an international online poetry magazine and a book-publishing company. It was founded in March 2017 in Ireland by poet Anatoly Kudryavitsky as a platform for new Irish and international Surrealist poetry in English.
SurVision Magazine[edit]
SurVision is a biannual magazine that publishes Surrealist poetry of different trends and schools, which includes translations from other languages.
In its turn, the Munich-based German-language Signaturen Magazine announced that they will be publishing their translations of the best poems from SurVision into German.[1]
SurVision has been noted for the range of its contributors, which includes both established and new writers from Ireland and elsewhere.
In his interview, Anatoly Kudryavitsky wrote the following:
"At SurVision, we appreciate rich language and honed poetic skills. We have a soft spot for poetic experiments, but we believe that such an experiment has to be successful in order to beget publishable texts. The reader will probably notice that we prefer poems that create distinct visual images to abstract Surrealist poems."[1]
In 2018, the poem titled "The Snails" by John W. Sexton published in SurVision magazine was shortlisted for An Post Irish Poem of the Year.[2]
SurVision Books[edit]
In April 2018, SurVision started their publishing project. The first two publications in the New Poetics series were 34-page chapbooks by Noelle Kocot and the Irish surrealist poet Ciaran O'Driscoll. The publisher of both was named as SurVision Books. More chapbooks followed, by the American Surrealist poet Elin O'Hara Slavick and by Anatoly Kudryavitsky, as well as translated chapbooks by Sergey Biryukov, a Russian experimental poet, and the Italian poet Maria Grazia Calandrone, as well as by the four American winners of James Tate Poetry Prize 2018. In autumn 2018, SurVision Books published a full-size collection by the American Surrealist poet George Kalamaras and Selected Poems by the German poet Anton G. Leitner; in early 2019, chapbooks by the English experimental poet Helen Ivory[3] and the Irish poets John W. Sexton[4], Afric McGlinchey and Tim Murphy[5]; in 2020, chapbooks by American Surrealist poets John Bradley and John Thomas Allen and by Irish poets Matthew Geden and Tony Bailie.[6] According to the publisher's website, an anthology of contemporary Russian Surrealist poetry entitled MESSAGE-DOOR was published in 2020; this book contains works by eight Russian poets in English translation.
According to the critic Michael S. Begnal writing in Poetry Ireland Trumpet, "SurVision is a press that brings energy and excitement to Irish poetry."[7]
According to MEAS report providing statistics for Irish poetry publications, SurVision Books in 2018 was the joint-second most prolific poetry press on the Island of Ireland.[8]
