Ursula Jüngst and Tiepolo: A Dialogue between Color, Space, and World

In the exhibition Ursula Jüngst: Tiepolo | The Rhythms of the World, contemporary painting meets baroque imagery. The works of the artist from Miltenberg, active in Barcelona and Nuremberg, enter into a direct dialogue at the Martin von Wagner Museum with Giambattista Tiepolo's famous staircase fresco in the Würzburg Residenz.

When Color Becomes Movement

Ursula Jüngst's images unfold an open, breathing dynamics. Elongated, slightly curved brushstrokes combine into elastic compositions in which forces, interactions, and proportions become visible. The exhibition invites visitors not only to observe motifs but to perceive the rhythm behind the visible world.

Between Baroque and Present

The connection to Tiepolo goes back to Jüngst's childhood. She was early on impressed by the ceiling painting in the stairwell of the Residenz. For the special exhibition, she engaged intensely with this work again between 2024 and 2026. From this conscious visual experience emerged images that bridge historical distance and intertwine two independent artistic positions.

An Exhibition Experience with a Special Atmosphere

The Small Gallery of the Martin von Wagner Museum offers a focused setting for this encounter. During the tour, vibrant color shapes, flowing color threads, and widely stretched image spaces alternate. The event planning combines scientific classification with immediate sensory experience and appeals to art enthusiasts, students, and curious visitors alike.

Art as Encouragement

Jüngst understands her painting as a form of painting against sorrow, pain, and darkness. Her works seek brightness, hope, and a let-through light despite all crises. The director of the Modern Department of the Martin von Wagner Museum, Professor Damian Dombrowski, contextualizes the exhibition art historically and describes the closeness between Tiepolo's world model and Jüngst's contemporary visual language.

Conclusion: Dive into the Rhythms of the World Now

The exhibition offers an intense event experience between art history, contemporary painting, and visual reflection. Visitors will experience how a baroque masterpiece can trigger new creative impulses. Admission is free – a good reason to discover the Small Gallery in the Martin von Wagner Museum live.
