OPENING OF THE RUHRTRIENNALE 2022

That was the opening of the Ruhrtriennale 2022! Minister President Hendrik Wüst opened the 20th edition of the Festival of the Arts on August 11, 2022. To mark the start of the second season under the directorship of Swiss theater director Barbara Frey, the Minister President attended the premiere of the music theater creation “Ich geh unter lauter Schatten” in the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum together with Culture and Science Minister Ina Brandes.

“Art and culture have an elementary intrinsic value,” the Minister President emphasized: “We all need culture. It enriches us – personally and individually. At the same time, it can also be a driving force for social change. Without art and culture, a society lacks essentials.”
