Summer, sun, art for cash!
In beautiful weather, we invite you to experience Düsseldorf's unique open stage under an open-air tent.
"Kunst gegen Bares" is basically the Muppet Show, only with people instead of pigs, frogs, dogs and bears. All according to Uncle Kermit's motto: "Take what you've got and fly with it!"
The idea is that each artist receives a piggy bank into which the audience throws money after the performance. The basis for the assessment is exclusively the taste and wealth of the individual audience members.
The seven rules for "art for cash":
1. spectators and artists come the same way and sit together in the audience.
2. the artists are brought on stage from the audience by the presenter.
3. the presentation time must be equally limited for all artists
4. each artist receives a piggy bank after the presentation.
5. the audience is asked to reward the art they have experienced by putting money into the respective piggy banks.
6. 100% of the money in the piggy banks goes to the artists.
7. the artist with the most money is crowned "Capitalist Pig of the Evening".
