KRA
​Mission Arnold Schwarzenegger: Episode 1

Performance

The climate crisis has found its place: between resigned acceptance and apocalyptic noise. Even the most radical voices are falling silent. Where others give up, KRA gets started. We solve all the world’s problems—this time: the climate crisis.

Our headquarters: a garage—a place where fast cars, old tools, and big dreams meet. This is where we embark on our mission. In the center of attention: Arnold Schwarzenegger—Styrian figurehead, global symbol of strength and contradiction. A man who was everything: bodybuilder, Terminator, governor, climate savior? A man who makes a difference—and yet remains part of a world based on consumption and resource depletion. Muscles, power, masculinity—seen too often, failed too often. KRA is taking over. We terminate pollution. Be part of our first action movie!

Mission Arnold Schwarzenegger is a performance about the survival of old heroes, the desire for simple solutions, and the influence of popular myths of masculinity on climate strategies. KRA is asking: Who inspires real, collective change?
