Karl Ulrich Nuss in Wasseralfingen: Experience the Art of Bronze Anew

The museum gallery in the community center of Wasseralfingen dedicates an exhibition to Karl Ulrich Nuss, showcasing the work of one of the most influential German sculptors of figurative sculpture. Between bronze, space, and movement, an artistic experience unfolds that makes the full range of his creations visible.

Bronze as the Language of Body, Gesture, and Presence

Karl Ulrich Nuss is known for sculptures that depict humans in posture, tension, and relationship. His figures never appear static, but rather lively, focused, and driven by inner movement. In the exhibition atmosphere of the museum gallery, this visual language comes particularly to the fore: bronze here tells a story about closeness, dignity, and form.

A Sculptor Between Public Space and Free Sculpture

For decades, the artist has shaped public spaces in southwestern Germany with large sculptures, fountains, and sacred works. His artworks engage people in squares, city gardens, and in front of churches. The exhibition clarifies how closely art history, artwork observation, and everyday space interplay in Nuss's work. Later, free large sculptures and more experimental works come into focus, where the sculptor thinks even more from the form itself.

A Life for Plastic Creation

Karl Ulrich Nuss was born in 1943 in Stuttgart. He initially studied in Schwäbisch Gmünd, then at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg and at the University of Fine Arts in Berlin. Since 1970, he has worked independently in Strümpfelbach; in 2004 he was appointed honorary professor of the state of Baden-Württemberg, and in 2013 he was named an honorary citizen of the city of Weinstadt. This biography explains the authority of an artist who has developed his own signature with craftsmanship precision and artistic curiosity.
