An evening for the language of form
The vernissage for the exhibition Karl Ulrich Nuss - THE PLASTICIAN invites you to the Bürgersaal of the Bürgerhaus Wasseralfingen on June 23, 2026. At the center is the work of a sculptor who has shaped the language of form in southwest German art for decades with large sculptures, fountains, sacred works, and free sculptures.
Form, space, and movement
Karl Ulrich Nuss is one of those artists whose sculptures are not only to be viewed but experienced in space. His plastic works combine figurative presence with a clear reduction to volume, posture, and tension. The exhibition thus opens up an artistic experience that makes the closeness between material, light, and body form visible.
A look at the work of an experienced sculptor
The official announcement describes how Nuss, throughout his career, transitioned from large-scale commissioned works to freer, more experimental forms. This transformation is particularly exciting for the view of the works: The narrative element recedes, pure plasticity comes to the fore. This creates a dialogue between art history, personal handwriting, and the sensual impact of sculpture in space.
Wasseralfingen as a vibrant art location
The Bürgerhaus Wasseralfingen provides a fitting setting for this exhibition opening with its Bürgersaal. The location is well integrated culturally, the museum gallery in the Bürgerhaus has regular opening hours, and according to the city of Aalen, the house is barrier-free accessible. This makes the vernissage an invitation to a wide audience to experience art directly and at low threshold.
Atmosphere of the vernissage
The opening is announced to include welcoming remarks, an interview with Karl Ulrich Nuss, and musical accompaniment. This mix of conversation, art, and sound promises a concentrated yet open exhibition atmosphere. For visitors, an evening emerges where aesthetic experience and cultural education come closely together.
Conclusion
Anyone interested in contemporary sculpture, plastic thinking, and the art landscape of southern Germany should not miss this vernissage. The exhibition offers a clever, sensual, and inspiring approach to the work of Karl Ulrich Nuss. A visit is particularly worthwhile for those who want to experience sculpture in its original form and feel its spatial impact directly.
