On the last day of the Ai Weiwei exhibition in Bad Ischl, there was a reunion with powder dance choreographer Doris Uhlich: she danced naked in the Kaiserpark. The audience took the opportunity to take photos on their cell phones - the Capital of Culture is now entering the home stretch and will come to an end on November 30.

A heated atmosphere in the freezing cold: Doris Uhlich triggered heated debates and headlines in January 2024 with the "Powder Dance" - naked amateur dancers on stage in the middle of Bad Ischl. This was the media-effective opening of the cultural capital in the Salzkammergut.
