The majority of visual artists continue to work under precarious fee conditions. Although the publication of the Guideline on Fees by the Federal Association of Visual Artists in December 2022 created the basis for the joint demand and enforcement of minimum fees for visual artists, the lower fee limits are not implemented everywhere – even in publicly funded projects they are only insufficiently applied. In order to make the information contained in the fee guidelines easy to use in practice, the Professional Association of Visual Artists Rhineland-Palatinate (BBK RLP) has programmed a fee calculator that is available to artists nationwide free of charge.
