Founded in 2019, THE NEAT REVIEW began as an irregular art journal exploring the crossovers between magic, sleight-of-hand and art. Alongside the journal, our studio has branched out into a dedicated imprint. Each year, we publish a careful, playful offering of essay & photo books on magic techniques and theory.
We are honoured to work with an unparalleled roster of magicians and artists to create our books, live events, editions & objects.

“…plus some sultrily shot how-to-guides for hand sleights, THE NEAT REVIEW does a great job of making magic community look cool, welcoming and – dare we say it – a little bit sexy.”

“The +200-page format and textured, monochrome cover give a satisfying tone, which continues with the strong typography inside… a really fascinating window into the strangely beguiling world of magic — beautifully done.”
Larry Horayne
“The fact that a cognitive analysis of deception can co-exist in a mag along with modern magic history of New York, card sleights and a 30-page interview with one of the best performers alive today, is simply just… neat.”
