What if sculptures could talk? What stories would they tell? Here at the Begegnung Sculpture in Karlsruhe, a silent conversation unfolds. The Begegnung Sculpture isn’t just a static piece of art. It represents a powerful encounter between two prominent Karlsruhe artists: Lutz Wolf and Harry Kögler. Their paths first crossed at the Karlsruhe Academy of Fine Arts in the late 1960s. Kögler, the elder by a generation, became a mentor and friend to Wolf. The Begegnung Sculpture symbolizes their shared artistic journey and mutual respect. Both artists achieved great recognition during their lifetimes. They were both honored with the highest art prizes Germany offered. Even at the end of their lives, they held each other’s artistic work in high regard. The exhibition “Begegnung” further honors this connection. It brings together a curated selection of their works, showcasing their individual styles and shared passion for art. This exhibition took place at Herrenstr. 26, 76133 Karlsruhe, within the TEAM 7 flagship store. So, as you stand before the Begegnung Sculpture, imagine these two artistic spirits meeting once more. Their legacy lives on through their powerful artworks and this poignant tribute to their bond.
