Jahrgang 2022
© Daniel Sadrowski
In 2022, Urbane Künste Ruhr invited a total of 15 international artists to live and work in the Ruhr region for the 4th time. The loose, thematic bracket for the residency programme was called "Future".
The cooperation with KunstVereineRuhr, an association of various art associations and artists' residencies that has existed since the start of the programme, was continued. The Haus der Geschichte des Ruhrgebiets in Bochum and the Halfmannshof in Gelsenkirchen also once again opened their doors to two artists each. New additions are the collaborations with the Makroscope - Centre for Art and Technology in Mülheim an der Ruhr and with the Kunstmuseum Bochum.
