Painting that goes under the skin: HERZFELD in the Old Town Hall Aalen
With HERZFELD, the Kunstverein Aalen opens an exhibition space for three Leipzig painters, whose works oscillate between figurative tradition, societal friction, and intense imagery. In the Old Town Hall - Kunstverein, the audience encounters an exhibition that does not need to be loud to resonate: precise, multilayered, and full of atmosphere.
Three artists, three styles, one common resonance space
Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler understand painting as a living organism. Their works revolve around closeness and distance, doubt and confidence, insecurity and beauty. From this emerges an exhibition experience that not only observes but also feels. The title HERZFELD phonetically refers to the Härtsfeld on the outskirts of Aalen and simultaneously anchors the presentation regionally and conceptually in the space.
Images with attitude and material presence
Bussenius focuses on backyards, subcultures, and fragile role models. König develops his scenes intuitively, raw, and nervously, between rough beauty and organized neglect. Ziegler works at the threshold of chronicling, pop art, and social critique. Together, they create a visual world where viewers move between observation and their own interpretation.
Strong exhibition in a historical environment
The Old Town Hall provides the perfect setting for this exhibition: centrally located at the marketplace, art-friendly, urban, and with that calm concentration that contemporary painting needs. Those interested in art, the atmosphere of a vernissage, and a close look at current painting will find a strong destination for a cultural date in Aalen.
Practical information for the visit
The exhibition is scheduled from September 19, 2026 to November 8, 2026. According to the city's website, the opening hours are 10:30 AM to 5:00 PM. The regular admission fee is 3 euros, reduced 2 euros. Parking is available in the town hall underground garage. Thus, nothing stands in the way of a relaxed exhibition visit in Aalen's city center.
Conclusion: An event for everyone seeking depth in painting
HERZFELD promises no quick surface but an intense art event with substance, tension, and strong imagery. Anyone wanting to experience contemporary painting in a special atmosphere should attend this exhibition at the Old Town Hall Aalen live.
