Herzfeld in the Old Town Hall: Three Leipzig Painters Open a View on Intimacy, Doubt, and Beauty
With HERZFELD, the Kunstverein Aalen presents an exhibition that combines figurative painting with intense imagery. Three Leipzig artists, three styles, one common resonance space: Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler capture the human experience between uncertainty and optimism in their works. The presentation runs from 09/19/2026 to 11/08/2026 at the Old Town Hall - Kunstverein in Aalen.

Painting with Attitude and Friction
Herzfeld is more than an exhibition title. The term refers to the Härtsfeld near Aalen and at the same time sets a poetic framework for an image world where everyday life, memory, and imagination intertwine. The Kunstverein describes the works as figurative painting that makes intimacy, doubt, fears, optimism, pride, beauty, and disgust visible. This creates a dense event atmosphere that does not shout but lingers long after.

Three Artistic Signatures, One Common Tension Arc
Christian Bussenius focuses on backyards of subcultures, fragile role models, and scenes between familiarity and dissolution. Alexander König develops his image worlds as a creaturely process without fixed guidelines, in which figures, still lifes, and portraits emerge from the moment. Martin Ziegler moves at the intersection of chronicle and simultaneity, blending pop cultural overlays with rough painterly materiality. This diversity shapes the exhibition experience and makes the visit particularly exciting for art enthusiasts seeking contemporary painting with depth.
