A multifaceted exhibition event at the Old Town Hall Aalen

With HERZFELD, the Kunstverein Aalen presents an exhibition that stages painting as a powerful, open space for thought. The three Leipzig artists Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler focus on figurative imagery, strong materiality, and a palpable tension between order and uncertainty. In the historic setting of the Old Town Hall, this creates a concentrated event experience for those seeking contemporary art with depth.

Three positions, one common resonance space

The title refers to the Härtsfeld on the outskirts of Aalen and connects regional anchorage with artistic breadth. Christian Bussenius directs his gaze towards marginal areas and hidden environments, Alexander König develops figures and still lifes with nervous immediacy, and Martin Ziegler works at the intersection of chronicle, pop art, and critical contemporary issues. This curatorial approach makes the exhibition a precise form of art mediation, where different handwriting merges into a dense dialogue.

The Old Town Hall as a stage for contemporary art

The gallery of the Kunstverein Aalen is located at the marketplace in the Old Town Hall, thus in the heart of urban life. The historic building provides a special atmosphere for the exhibition: clear spaces, short paths, concentrated lines of sight, and a framework that accentuates the visual language of the artists even more. For visitors, it becomes a quiet place for contemplation, exchange, and an immediate art experience.

A format with regional radiance

The Kunstverein Aalen has stood for continuous exhibition work and a program that brings contemporary art into urban society since 1983. With regular exhibitions, guided tours, and other cultural formats, the association creates a reliable platform for encounter and discussion. HERZFELD seamlessly integrates into this tradition and simultaneously brings fresh impulses to the regional art scene.

A visit with relaxed planning

The exhibition runs in autumn 2026, making it ideal for a cultural visit to Aalen. Due to its central location at the marketplace, good accessibility, and available parking options around the town hall, a visit to the exhibition can be planned easily. Those interested in painting, contemporary art, and curated exhibition concepts will find a compelling reason to visit.

Conclusion: HERZFELD connects three independent artistic handwritings with an ambitious presentation in the Old Town Hall Aalen. Visitors can expect an exhibition with depth, presence, and strong atmospheric expression. Those who want to experience contemporary painting live should mark this date.
