Colorful Present in the Old Town Hall: HERZFELD in Aalen
With HERZFELD, the Art Association Aalen opens an exhibition that makes painting an alive, multifaceted process. Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler bring together three independent positions and transform the Old Town Hall into a place of intense visual encounters.
Three Leipzig Painters, Three Handwritings, One Common Resonance Space
The title refers to the Härtsfeld near Aalen and sets the tone: regionally anchored, while also open to great artistic questions. The three Leipzig painters work in a figurative tradition, but each position develops its own dramaturgy of intimacy, doubt, beauty, insecurity, and social observation. This creates an event experience that does not make loud appearances but leaves a lasting impact.
Painting Between Pull, Tension, and Material Presence
Christian Bussenius focuses on backyards, fringe areas, and fragile scenes between familiarity and dissolution. Alexander König allows figures, still lifes, and portraits to emerge from an impulsive, almost nervous painting process. Martin Ziegler combines chronicling, pop art, and critical overlays into painterly rich visual spaces. Those who engage with this exhibition experience art as an immediate, sensual, and simultaneously reflective experience.
The Art Association Aalen as a Stage for Contemporary Positions
The Art Association Aalen has been showcasing contemporary art since 1983 and has established itself as a fixed entity in urban cultural life with over 1000 events. The gallery in the Old Town Hall is located directly at the market square and provides a fitting framework for exhibitions that promote dialogue and perspective shifts. The calm, central location enhances the audience's atmosphere and allows the artworks to unfold their impact.
Visit with Atmosphere: Central, Compact, Close to Art
The event location is located in the center of Aalen, easily accessible and clearly oriented towards culture. According to official information, admission is free. The opening takes place on September 18 and 19, 2026, from 19:00 to 22:00 each day. Thus, HERZFELD is ideal for anyone wishing to spend an evening with contemporary painting, a concentrated exhibition atmosphere, and strong artistic positions.
Conclusion
HERZFELD connects regional placement with artistic depth and makes the Old Town Hall in Aalen a meeting point for all who want to experience painting live, close, and with resonance. Those looking for contemporary art with substance should not miss this exhibition.
