Artists from the region and beyond present sculptures, three-dimensional works and installations that, in interplay with nature and the seasons, create ever-changing impressions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A living exhibition<br \/>\n<\/strong>A special feature is its dynamic structure: individual works are regularly replaced, new focal points are set, or previously unused places are opened up. At the same time, many sculptures remain for years and thus shape the character of the walk along the Erlenbach. By purchasing selected works, the City of Bad Vilbel preserves individual exhibits permanently and makes them accessible to the public in the long term.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Artwork Undine II \u2013 created on site<br \/>\n<\/strong>Something special is the sculpture <em>Undine II<\/em> by Clemens M. Strugalla: so far, it is the only work created directly on site\u2014from a Jurassic limestone around 200 million years old. Visitors were able to watch the work being created right there in the floodplain. <em>Undine II<\/em> is a prime example of the connection between artistic process, natural space and public encounter.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<strong>A vibrant space between art and landscape<br \/>\n<\/strong>Floodplain art opens up a dialogue between contemporary art and a landscape shaped over time. The stream, meadows and groups of trees are not just a backdrop, but active participants: water, light, weather and the seasons continually change how the works are perceived.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Encountering art<br \/>\n<\/strong>At the same time, a central idea of art in public space is reflected here: art meets people directly, without feeling intimidated, beyond traditional exhibition venues. It challenges, inspires and invites you to pause. In the Massenheim Floodplain, this happens in a particularly light, close-to-nature way: visitors can engage with it, discover something\u2014or simply keep walking.<\/p>\n<p>With floodplain art, a vibrant space for cultural encounters has emerged in Massenheim\u2014supported by the commitment of the city, the artists, and many sponsors and supporters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/viltour.de\/en\/services\/black-alder-trail-4-5-km\/\">&gt; <u>Black Alder Trail<\/u><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"rs-p-wp-fix\"><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<sr7-module data-alias=\"streetart-1-1\" data-id=\"55\" id=\"SR7_55_1\" class=\"rs-ov-hidden\" data-version=\"6.8.1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-adjuster><\/sr7-adjuster>\n\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-content>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-slide id=\"SR7_55_1-257\" data-key=\"257\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-bg id=\"SR7_55_1-257-1\" class=\"sr7-layer\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/viltour.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Auenkunst-Massenheim-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Abstrakte Steinskulptur mit einem Loch, ausgestellt auf einem Betonsockel in einem grasbewachsenen Park mit B\u00e4umen, einem Spazierweg und einer weiteren Steinskulptur im Hintergrund an einem sonnigen Tag.\" title=\"Auenkunst Massenheim-2\"><\/noscript><\/sr7-bg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/sr7-slide>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-slide id=\"SR7_55_1-258\" data-key=\"258\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-bg id=\"SR7_55_1-258-1\" class=\"sr7-layer\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/viltour.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Auenkunst-Massenheim-3-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Eine Parkszene mit Holzb\u00e4nken und einem Picknicktisch im Vordergrund, gr\u00fcnem Gras, hohen B\u00e4umen und vier wei\u00dfen, abstrakten Menschenskulpturen, die auf der Wiese verteilt sind.\" title=\"Auenkunst Massenheim-3\"><\/noscript><\/sr7-bg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/sr7-slide>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-slide id=\"SR7_55_1-260\" data-key=\"260\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-bg id=\"SR7_55_1-260-1\" class=\"sr7-layer\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/viltour.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Auenkunst-Massenheim-4-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Ein Garten mit bunten Blumen und gr\u00fcnen Str\u00e4uchern vor einer Statue und einem Gedenkstein, umgeben von hohen B\u00e4umen und \u00fcppigem Gr\u00fcn unter einem strahlend blauen Himmel.\" title=\"Auenkunst Massenheim-4\"><\/noscript><\/sr7-bg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/sr7-slide>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-slide id=\"SR7_55_1-259\" data-key=\"259\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<sr7-bg id=\"SR7_55_1-259-1\" class=\"sr7-layer\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/viltour.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Auenkunst-Massenheim-5-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Ein Kiesweg schl\u00e4ngelt sich durch einen gr\u00fcnen Park mit B\u00e4umen und Rasenfl\u00e4chen.
