Special exhibition

‘Form in Motion. Automobile Sculptures by Alexander Stollberg’ 

Exhibition dates: 31 October 2025 – 31 May 2026

Sculptor Alexander Stollberg combines craftsmanship, technology and emotion in his work. He creates automotive sculptures from stone and wood that breathe the spirit of bygone eras – inspired by the elegant streamlined shapes of the 1920s and 1930s, the racing and record-breaking cars of Auto Union and the iconic silhouette of Porsche. His works radiate a fascinating tension between movement and material – they seem to be about to take off at any moment, while at the same time awakening an inner desire to touch them.
