From 18 June to 25 September 2022, artists Hannes Egger and Thomas Sterna have rented an exhibition space at KulturBahnhof Kassel and given other artists a chance to win a one-week presentation slot during documenta fifteen. Leaving the decision up to chance rather than a panel of experts, any artist, curator or exhibition organiser interested could enter the prize draw by simply purchasing a raffle ticket. The 13 winners, selected in a total of four draws, were then free to show their works without any requirements regarding content and/or aesthetic input. But not all winners decided to exhibit their own works: Some organised group exhibitions, others gave their slot away. The results varied greatly and were surprising, often breaking with conventional notions of art and standards of evaluation.
The project ended with a panel discussion in the ruruHaus at documenta fifteen with the curatorial team ruangrupa.

Lottery

By purchasing one or more tickets, the participating artists are automatically entered in all three Win-Win Lottery draws. (All draws of the Win-Win Lottery have already taken place. The lottery has ended!)

The more tickets you buy, the higher your chances of winning. 

All winners are notified via e-mail no less than one month before their allocated slot. The prize is a week’s worth of exhibition time at a gallery within KulturBahnhof Kassel.

All decisions are final and binding; there is no right of appeal. 

Professional artists, curators and exhibition makers are allowed to exhibit.

Once the purchase is completed, the ticket(s) will be sent to the buyer via e-mail. Each ticket is numbered individually and issued as a special edition of the Win-Win Lottery project.

The income from the sale of the tickets are used exclusively to fund the Win-Win Lottery project.
