Art meets nature: Exhibition in Kirchheim tells of the changes on the test track
From June 21st, the exhibition “Measuring Vehicles Crossing” will open in Kirchheim unter Teck, which deals with the transformation of nature on the former Mercedes test track. The show takes place at Artspace Wieweg, Wieselweg 7, and runs until July 28th. Opening times are Saturdays and Sundays from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free, which makes participation attractive to broader sections of the population. The works of art come from the artists Stefan Voigt and Claudia Zeller-Sauter, who capture traces of the past in different ways.
Stefan Voigt focuses on the documentary representation of the remains of the test track and shows abandoned ramps, faded signs and remnants of concrete. These elements are not only relics, but also tell of the region's industrial history and the interaction between humans and nature. In her light-sensitive works, Claudia Zeller-Sauter presents special papers that have been treated with an iodine solution. During the exhibition period, these papers change, creating a dynamic dialogue between the artwork and nature.
Significance of the Wernau quarry lakes
The exhibition takes place in the special surroundings of the Wernau quarry lakes, which are known as the largest and most important wetland and bird sanctuary in the Middle Neckar area. Loud ntz.de The city and nature conservation experts are working to further develop the area and promote biodiversity. In this context, two Nabu experts will present the diverse flora and fauna of the quarry lakes and the Neckar.
The quarry lakes are strategically located between the Tübingen–Stuttgart railway line and the federal highway 313, which increases their accessibility. While commercial areas have developed along the Neckar since industrialization, the preservation of this valuable natural landscape is of great importance for the environment and the relaxation of local residents.
The upcoming opening of the exhibition and the ecological work on the Wernau quarry lakes illustrate how art and nature conservation can coexist in a constantly changing landscape. The exhibition not only offers aesthetic enjoyment, but also encourages reflection on how we deal with nature and urban space.
