Sculpture that thinks from space

Karl Ulrich Nuss is primarily known as a sculptor who works figuratively and gives his works an immediate physical tension. His sculptures thrive on movement, posture, and counter-movement; they unfold their effect not only frontally but also from changing viewpoints. This is precisely where the aesthetic experience of his works lies: bronze is not seen as a rigid material by Nuss, but as a bearer of vitality, humor, and human character study.

An artist with deep roots in Southwest Germany

The art-historical classification is clear: Nuss stands in the tradition of realistic figurative sculpture, which has a strong presence in Southwest Germany. His biography is closely linked to Strümpfelbach and the Remstal; there, sculptures path, sculpture hall, and collection Nuss continue to shape the cultural memory of the region today. His works in public space also make him an artist who does not separate art from everyday life but extends it into the urban space.
