In the Studio Robin Kid, Rambouillet, France

Robin Kid works with images that feel less made than encountered. Cowboys, cops, fragments of cartoon Americana: images that existed long before he picked them up, suspended somewhere between memory and mass culture.

In the Studio Megan Plunkett, Los Angeles, CA

Seven weeks, 14 opera productions, three world premieres and a wealth of concerts: this is the Munich Opera Festival 2026. The programme covers a wide range: from Baroque – with George Frideric Handel’s *Alcina* as the festival premiere at the Prinzregententheater – through 19th-century opera classics to contemporary musical theatre. With Brett Dean’s Of One Blood – a commission from the Bavarian State Opera – the world premiere production from the current season returns once again to the Nationaltheater. With the festival premiere of Richard Wagner’s Die Walküre at the Nationaltheater, Tobias Kratzer and Vladimir Jurowski set another milestone for the new Munich Ring of the Nibelung, following their acclaimed production of Rheingold.
