POPISTERROR

Goosebumps for duckfaces 

POPISTERROR is an artistic hybrid of music, image, video and dance. A cheerful hodgepodge. A flashy snapshot of the strange world of today. A powerful snapshot in bright colors against a dark backdrop. A gallop of possibilities. Goosebumps for duckface faces.

The project first took shape as the POPISTERROR Temple in October 2019 during the Dresden DAVE Festival in the form of a walk-in installation. Back then, there was a continuous loop for all senses to experience. 

In a way, Bandstand is home territory, as the POPISTERROR temple opened its doors in HELLERAU back in 2020. And once again in 2024, two visitors can take a seat in the temple at any time to stare wide-eyed into the confetti cannon.
