BACK TO THE ROOTS: Steel Becomes Line – Aalen Discovers Poetry in Space
The sculptress Manuela Tirler transforms raw steel rods into airy spatial drawings at the Kunstverein Aalen. Between lightness and material strength, an event atmosphere is created that invites pause – an experience for art lovers and the curious.
Breathing Sculptures – Forms Between Nature and City
Bent concrete steel, welded iron wire, visible rust stains: Tirler uses the material unabashedly. Her vegetative forms capture the logic of tendrils, stems, and braids without imitating nature. Thus, a public mood emerges that oscillates between wonder and contemplative viewing.
Curatorial Clarity – How the Exhibition is Conducted
The presentation focuses on linear, three-dimensional placements. Clever event planning and organization ensure clear sight lines, generous spaces, and a calm exhibition environment – optimal conditions for in-depth observation.
Material vs. Impression – The Productive Contradiction
The appeal lies in the contrast: heavy steel feels featherlight. Visible weld seams remain part of the aesthetic. This work strategy makes the transformation of the raw material comprehensible – expertise to touch.
Artist Profile – Experience, Awards, Presence
The sculptress from Stuttgart studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart and has realized numerous exhibitions domestically and abroad. In 2024 she received the Scultura Art Prize from the Kuberas Foundation. These milestones underscore the authority of the artist.
