This year, we received over 140 applications from Poland, Ukraine, and German-speaking countries. Choosing six individuals from so many outstanding voices was an incredibly demanding task. Thank you all for taking part!
The number of applications is a clear sign of how much the literary field needs scholarship and residency programmes like Homines Urbani. Our mission remains to build a sustainable support system for artists – strengthening the resilience of art.
The writers will arrive at Villa Decius from May to September for one-month residencies. We’ll be introducing Them to you soon – but for now: congratulations, and see you soon!
