We know the results of the call for a residency in Dresden. Paweł Kowalski, curator and producer from Wrocław, will go to GEH8 Art Space and Studios in April to develop his "Revolution: Art in times of social unrest" project there. We'll have the opportunity to host Marian Kaiser for a four-week residency in cooperation with the WRO Art Center, where he will work with the media archive there.
