3rd KISSTHEHEN Auction

KISSTHEHEN is back for round three!

On Saturday, 12 December 2026, we're once again bringing contemporary art from Central Switzerland straight from the studio to the auction floor — 42 artistic positions, live bidding only, no middlemen. Save the date! We are different from the others!!

**WHY**
KISSTHEHEN brings contemporary art from Central Switzerland into motion: visible, accessible, and open to bidding. The auction creates direct encounters between art and audience — and puts the money where it belongs: 51% of every sale goes straight to the artist, and 9% supports a foundation for Central Switzerland artists in financial need.

**WHAT**
A curated auction beyond traditional auction houses: personal, direct and encounter-driven.
All works are auctioned live on site — no online or telephone bidding.
Artistic media 2026: Painting, photography, drawing, sculpture and objects.
Concept: Barbara Hennig Marques & Monika Kiss Horváth
