“pure”: Between Line, Surface, and Inner Tension

At the Kunstverein Bad Godesberg, the independent artistic positions of Martina Stürzl-Koch and Christina Koester will meet starting on October 31, 2026. The exhibition “pure” brings together print graphics, drawings, sculptures, and objects for a focused display on material, form, and perception.

A Silent Language of Abstraction

The exhibition develops its impact from a reduced, abstract visual language. Between line and surface, density and emptiness, an exhibition atmosphere arises in which every detail invites contemplation of the works. The pieces do not seek loud effects but generate clarity and inner tension through precise placements, open forms, and conscious negative spaces.

Martina Stürzl-Koch: Natural Material and Experimental Printmaking

Martina Stürzl-Koch develops her prints from the immediate encounter with natural materials. An archaic-sounding visual language connects with an experimental process, where the material becomes a guide in an open artistic journey. In this painting devoid of classical color dominance, in the graphic structures and material traces, the unknown appears as a productive space for new forms.

Christina Koester: Precision and Sketched Quality

Christina Koester explores clear, reduced forms as well as dynamism and lightness. Her works navigate between precise construction and spontaneous, sketch-like gestures. It is precisely the imperfect that acquires its own aesthetic quality: it preserves the impression of movement and makes the process of creation visible.

Contemplation of Works as an Aesthetic Experience

“pure” opens an art experience that sharpens the view for materiality and spatial effect. Print graphics, sculpture, and objects engage in a dialogue about surface, weight, contour, and emptiness. Thus, the exhibition is also suitable for cultural education: it illustrates how complex perception can arise from simple forms and how curation connects different artistic attitudes.

Visit and Exhibition Atmosphere

The exhibition is open at Kunstverein Bad Godesberg on Saturdays and Sundays from 3 PM to 6 PM and on Mondays from 7 PM to 9 PM. On Saturday, October 31, 2026, the exhibition will be accessible from 3 PM to 6 PM. Registration is not required. Admission is free.

The artistic experience of “pure” thrives on the immediate encounter with the works. Those wishing to experience abstract art, print graphics, sculpture, and contemporary object art in a focused presentation will find an inspiring place for aesthetic experience and deeper contemplation of the works at Kunstverein Bad Godesberg.
