SCULPTURE today in Aalen: Contemporary sculpture at the District Office

SCULPTURE today brings contemporary sculpture to the heart of Aalen

With the exhibition SCULPTURE today, the District Office Ostalbkreis in Aalen will open a special view of current sculpture in Baden-Württemberg starting from April 21, 2026. Works by 27 artists from the Professional Association of Visual Sculptors Baden-Württemberg, short BfB, will be shown, which has stood for artistic quality and professional selection since 1972.

An art experience between architecture, space, and material

By entering the District Office, visitors will experience no classic gallery but a place where art and administration come together in unexpectedly exciting ways. This is exactly where the allure of this exhibition lies: sculptures, forms, and surfaces change the perspective on the space, invite pause, and create an atmosphere that is as focused as it is inspiring.

27 positions, many perspectives

The participation of 27 sculptors promises a diverse tour of contemporary sculpture. From figurative to abstract, from clear form to experimental materiality, the liveliness of the medium today is showcased. For art enthusiasts, cultural audiences, and visitors with a sense of design, the exhibition thus becomes a compact overview of current positions in sculpture.

A visit with cultural added value

Especially attractive is the free accessibility during the usual opening hours of the District Office Ostalbkreis. Thus, SCULPTURE today offers not only art enjoyment but also a low-threshold event experience for spontaneous visits, cultural evenings, or an inspiring stop in the Aalen city center area. A guided tour will take place at the end of the exhibition on June 10, 2026, at 5:00 PM, offering additional insights into the works and backgrounds.

Conclusion: Art that makes everyday life pause briefly

SCULPTURE today connects professional sculpture with a public place that reaches many people daily. This mixture makes the exhibition so appealing: here, artistic precision meets immediate proximity to the audience. Anyone wishing to experience contemporary sculpture in an unusual setting should mark this date in Aalen and discover the exhibition live.
