Pipilotti Rist used part of Sikkens Prize 2024 prize money for Museum in Progress’s Safety Curtain project
Pipilotti Rist, winner of the Sikkens Prize 2024, used part of her prize money for Museum in Progress‘s Safety Curtain project. Every year, this Austrian art organisation asks a renowned artist to transform the curtain of the Vienna State Opera into a work of art. This year, they asked Rist to take part. The opening of Rist’s large-format painting (176m²) on Tuesday 24 September was a great success with 800 guests. Rist’s Safety Curtain will be on display until the end of June 2025.
