HERZFELD at the Kunstverein Aalen: Three Leipzig positions, an intense look at painting

With HERZFELD, the Kunstverein Aalen presents an exhibition that makes figurative painting experienceable as a living organism. Christian Bussenius, Alexander König, and Martin Ziegler rely on image worlds full of intimacy, doubt, confidence, and tension – transforming the Old Town Hall into a place of concentrated exhibition culture. The exhibition runs from 09/19/2026 to 11/08/2026; the date taken over by the system on 11/03/2026 falls within this exhibition phase.

Painting between dislocation and transformation

The exhibition text describes HERZFELD as a framework for three Leipzig painters who understand the image as a means of accessing and coping with the world. Bussenius focuses on backyards of marginal cultures and fragile scenarios; König works with creaturely, nervous image finding between rough beauty and organized neglect; Ziegler navigates the boundary of chronicling and non-simultaneity, revealing societal fault lines. It is precisely this range that makes the event experience so appealing.
