NippleJesus is the monologue of a museum’s guard, who suddenly becomes part of a scandal within the art world. The catalyst is an image of Jesus, which on closer inspection turns out to be a collage out of small nipples. David for whom art has so far been a waste of public money, has to guard the work of art. As former bouncer of a club he takes this task very seriously and gets down to surprising insights into the value of art.
David: Kai Hufnagel, direction: Friedhelm Roth-Lange
The British author Nick Hornby became generally known through his novels High Fidelity and About a Boy. Last autmn his novel Juliet. Naked. Nipple Jesus originally is a short story out of the collection Speaking with the Angel.

Last Chance to See - Kunstverein. The dinosaur of the art world
Event series 26.6.-5.9.10
For the first time the art associations in Bonn, Düsseldorf and Cologne are working together on a joint project, in which the institutional challenges for art associations in the 21st century shall be discussed. Art associations are basically bourgeois institutions which have developed in the beginning of the 19th century (Vormärz) as an active answer to the aristocratic parlors.
