Ulrich Brauchle: Visual – an exhibition between line, color, and landscape
With the exhibition Visual – Painting and Drawing, the Ostalbkreis District Office in Aalen presents new works by the Ellwangen artist Ulrich Brauchle. Pencil drawings, oil paintings, and oil pastel works invite an intense art experience where perception, materiality, and independent artwork observation come together.
Between Abstraction and Objectivity
Ulrich Brauchle's imagery moves between literal hints and open abstraction. Landscape and figurative references appear alongside clearly structured areas, while lines structure the pictorial space and create a quiet tension. The works do not demand a quick glance but develop their impact through a calm approach.
The Drawing as the Origin of Visual Language
The line forms the starting point of Brauchle's artistic practice. In his pencil drawings, a precise yet poetic observational skill is evident. Oil paintings and oil pastel works expand this drawing foundation with color effects, layering, and painterly rhythm. The image carrier thereby becomes an active component of the composition.
Art Historical Classification and Aesthetic Experience
The artist, born in 1971 in Ellwangen, studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart and history, art history, and theology at the University of Tübingen. His works connect nature and landscape experiences with a contemporary, increasingly open visual perception. For his printmaking work, Brauchle received the Felix-Hollenberg Prize for Printmaking in 2004. He is a member of the Baden-Württemberg Artists' Association and also works as an art educator, lecturer, and curator.
Exhibition Atmosphere and Artist Tours
The exhibition unfolds its special spatial effect in the direct encounter with the originals. Color areas, open lines, and finely placed drawing traces lead to an aesthetic experience that develops from prolonged viewing. Artist tours with Ulrich Brauchle will take place on November 19 and December 10, 2026, each at 5:30 PM. The opening hours are Monday to Wednesday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Thursday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 12:15 PM.
Conclusion: Learning to See Through Art
Visual opens a quiet yet demanding access to contemporary painting and drawing. Visitors can expect an art experience focused on perception, concentration, and the creative power of line, surface, and color. Those wanting to experience art in its materiality, spatial effect, and poetic openness should visit this exhibition at the Ostalbkreis District Office live.
