Australian artist Stuart Ringholt will be hosting an intriguing Art Cologne tour at this year's fair that will invite participants to strip down and become part of the art. The nudist tour will be offered at Art Cologne 2016 by Ringholt and will allow those attending the tour to participate in the nude.

The [naked art tour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loreal-and-the-louvre) was conceived by the Australian artist as a means of celebrating the fair's 50th anniversary. The performance is for adults only and is officially titled "Preceded by a tour of the show by artist Stuart Ringholt." All participants must be naked in order to participate in the tour, which will last two hours.

An annual event held to showcase and sell [contemporary art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-in-motion-exhibition), Art Cologne 2016 takes place between April 14 and 17 at Koelnmesse in Cologne, Germany.
