An artistic experience between departure and memory in Eppingen Town Hall
The exhibition WEG! New Beginning – Old Beginning brings the upper level of Hartmanni-Gymnasium to the gallery in Eppingen Town Hall. Between painting, installation, photographic documentation, and performance unfolds a cleverly curated artistic experience about paths, transitions, and artistic thinking in the tension between farewell and new beginnings.
When school art meets art history
At the center of the exhibition is the engagement with Giotto di Bondone and Francis Bacon. This juxtaposition opens a historical resonance space: Giotto as a pioneer of a new understanding of images with spatial depth and human emotion, Bacon as a master of a radically condensed, expressive world of figures. The students translate these impulses into their own visual solutions, demonstrating how art history remains vibrant in the present.
Space, light, and movement as part of the exhibition
The gallery in the Town Hall provides a fitting framework for this. The historic building at the marketplace lends a special exhibition atmosphere to the presentation, where architecture and art respond to each other. The works unfold an immediate effect in the interplay of color, form, and material. Visitors to the exhibition experience not only individual works but a comprehensive view of the pieces, where school creativity, aesthetic experience, and cultural education intertwine.
Performance and artistic mediation
At the opening, the idea of the title will also be carried out performatively into the marketplace. This extends the exhibition beyond the interior into the public urban space. It is precisely this connection of action, image, and place that makes the presentation attractive: art is not just observed here but experienced as movement, attitude, and expression.
Free admission and ideal for a cultural stroll
The exhibition is accessible until October 2, 2026, during Town Hall opening hours and is perfect for a spontaneous visit, a family outing, or an art educational detour. Free admission lowers the threshold to get to know the exhibition more closely and invites discovery of Eppingen as a place of vibrant cultural encounters.
Conclusion: WEG! New Beginning – Old Beginning connects school art, art history, and the present into an exhibition with a clear stance and sensual presence. Those interested in young positions, artistic experiments, and the dialogue between tradition and modernity should definitely experience this exhibition live.
