About the auction

Grisebach is pleased to offer a unique opportunity for admirers of Richard Wagner and the art of Rosa Loy and Neo Rauch: original objects from the acclaimed Lohengrin production, created by the artist couple for the Bayreuth Festival in 2018, will be available for purchase. This year marks the final performance of this celebrated staging. 

A selection of costumes, props, and set pieces—curated by the artists themselves—will be auctioned at Grisebach in September 2025. Proceeds from this charity auction will benefit the Bayreuth Festival’s children's opera program.

The online only auction runs from 19 to 28 September 2025.
