Under the title “Chlorreiche Tage”, the Rüppurr outdoor pool will be transformed into an extraordinary exhibition space from June 5 to 7, bringing it to life in a new way.

On display will be around 40 works by local artists and designers who explore outdoor pool culture in a variety of ways. The project is organized and curated by a collective from the HfG Karlsruhe, consisting of Charlotte Singer, Lisa Eigmüller, Pauline Kuch, and Lilith Stumpf.
The exhibition design is by Klara Madina Beck, Amelie Albertine Enders, and Asimina Sideris.

The outdoor exhibition will officially open on Friday, June 5, at 3:00 p.m. with opening remarks and a food installation. Following the opening, the synchronized swimming team of SSC Karlsruhe will present a specially choreographed water show.

Outdoor swimming pools are places of culture, democracy, and social participation. They invite us to rethink collective leisure. At the same time, they are repeatedly under political and economic pressure. Against this backdrop, “Chlorreiche Tage” takes a stand and attempts to approach these meeting places—which are worth protecting—through artistic practice. Visitors are invited to admire the works, linger, and, of course, go for a swim.
