HERZFELD in the Old Town Hall: Painting with Tension, Closeness, and Friction

With HERZFELD, the Aalen Art Association presents an exhibition in the Old Town Hall that does not make a loud entrance yet resonates for a long time. Three Leipzig painters showcase works that revolve around figurative tradition, social observation, and personal insecurity. The result is a multi-layered event experience for all who appreciate contemporary art with atmosphere and depth.

A Title with Regional Echo

The name HERZFELD is phonetically related to the Härtsfeld and immediately establishes a connection to the region. At the same time, it opens up the view of a painting that does not want to remain decorative. Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler develop pictorial spaces where closeness and distance, beauty and disgust, confidence and insecurity meet. The exhibition appeals to visitors who seek not only form but also attitude in art.

Three Positions, Three Handwritings

Christian Bussenius directs his gaze to backyards, subcultures, and fragile scenes of familiarity. Alexander König works intuitively, roughly, and nervously, with figures, still lifes, and portraits oscillating between beauty and organized neglect. Martin Ziegler, on the other hand, operates on the border of chronicling and asynchrony, condensing social fault lines into powerful visual ideas. It is precisely these differences that make the exhibition appealing: visitors experience not uniformity, but an intense dialogue of three artistic perspectives.

Atmosphere in the Old Town Hall

The gallery of the Aalen Art Association is located in the city center at the marketplace and provides a fitting framework for the cultural offering. The historic ambiance of the Old Town Hall enhances the impact of the works, as the rooms create tranquility, focus, and a clear audience mood. Those who walk through the exhibition here do not experience art in passing, but as a conscious, decelerated event.

Organization, Access, and Visit

The Aalen Art Association has stood for committed art education and a continuously maintained exhibition program since 1983. The gallery is located at Marktplatz 4, directly above Café Podium and under the City Theater of Aalen. Parking is available in the Rathaus Tiefgarage. This means short distances, a central location, and an uncomplicated journey to the city center for visitors.

The exhibition is open from September 19, 2026, to November 8, 2026. Regular admission is 3 euros, reduced 2 euros. Particularly attractive: Thursday is considered Art Day at the Art Association with free admission. All interested parties are invited to the opening.

Conclusion: Experience Art with Character in Aalen Now

HERZFELD promises an exhibition with a strong handwriting, emotional depth, and precise imagery. Anyone wanting to discover contemporary painting in a unique environment should mark this date and experience the exhibition live in the Old Town Hall.
