About

* 12.02.1988, Borgerhout, Belgium
lives in: Antwerp, Belgium

Maarten Inghels was born in 1988 in Borgerhout, Belgium. With three poetry collections under his belt, he heads up the new generation of poets writing in Dutch. Until 2018 he is the official poet laureate for the city of Antwerp.

He coordinates ‘The Lonely Funeral’ project in Belgium, which provides poets to speak at funerals of those without relatives and friends to attend. The equally named book was published in 2013 and received wide critical acclaim.

Inghels was a guest of literature festivals in Europe (Berlin, Mantova, Hay-On-Wye, Paris, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Zagreb …) and a selection of his poetry has been translated to English, German, French, Croatian, Romanian, Estonian and published by various international magazines (Poetry London, Die Horen, La Traductière, Poésie/Première, Edit, 3:AM Magazine, Poetry International Web…).
