Jakob Schwerdtfeger - "Meisterwerk"

Art touches our lives far more than we realise. The Aldi bag, the Renault logo, Louis Vuitton handbags - all designed by artists. Art is political, provocative, gripping, and above all a lot of fun. Jakob Schwerdtfeger explores every facet of it, deftly juggling art history from cave paintings to graffiti. He turns the stage into his canvas: comedy, painted to perfection.

Deep awe. Wide eyes. Open mouths. That's the classic reaction to the Sistine Chapel - and to Jakob Schwerdtfeger's new show "Meisterwerk". As a comedian and art historian, he blends humour with art knowledge: the Mona Lisa's smile becomes a fit of laughter, and Munch's famous painting turns into a shout of joy. Schwerdtfeger casts the art world in a completely new light, moving through art history as freely as if it were his bouncy castle.
