Currywurst Now: Art Meets Ruhr Area – Free Admission, Strong Impressions
The exhibition 'Currywurst Now' brings the unmistakable currywurst cosmos right into the center of Bochum. In the basement of Thalia Mayersche, artist Kirsten Mikus (kimikunst) transforms everyday culture into art – playful, serious, and with a wink. On Friday, July 24, 2026, she will be personally present on site from 3 to 6 PM.
Between Ketchup Red and Printer’s Black: The Event Atmosphere
Warm store lighting, the scent of fresh pages, and vibrant print graphics create a event experience that ignites closeness and curiosity. Visitors will experience the audience atmosphere oscillating between amazement and amusement as motifs from the 'CPM cult' – currywurst, fries, mayo – are artistically reimagined.
Artistic Signature: kimikunst by Kirsten Mikus
The Bochum artist combines painting, printmaking, and object art. Her works play with pop icons of the region and show how precise organization and loving event planning bring a low-threshold art format into daily life. Professionally, the clear targeting of the audience is convincing: art to touch, conversations on equal footing, technical insights.
Live On Site: Ask Questions, Understand Art
Every Friday, the artist is present to answer questions – a plus for the curious, school classes, and urban explorers. The format promotes genuine encounters, strengthens the local art scene, and makes printing processes visible.
Arrive Barrier-Free, Stay Relaxed
