Malba Literatura and Acción Cultural Española have launched the REM + AC/E programme whereby a grant will be awarded to a Spanish writer every year to enjoy the Malba Writers’ Residency. The programme is aimed at foreign writers and is designed as a forum for exchange and literary creation based on an invitation to spend five weeks in Buenos Aires as part of their artistic and professional development.
REM +AC/E programme. This programme arose from the joint aim of the Malba Writers’ Residency and Acción Cultural Española to foster the internationalisation of Spanish and Argentinian creators and encourage collaboration between authors, publishers and managers of both countries.
The residency is aimed at Spanish writers and offers the possibility of living five weeks in Buenos Aires as part of their artistic and professional development. The Malba Writers Residence proposes an urban experience that allows contact with various cultural manifestations of the city and is also a platform that promotes networks of artistic collaboration.
This new call for applications for the REM +AC/E 2020 programme has taken place in October through Malba’s website. The international jury appointed by the museum will shortlist three candidatures, which they will pass on to AC/E to assess and select the beneficiary.
