Artist Karl Kujau celebrates father uncle Konrad at Langer Gallerienacht!

in Dresden, summer begins with a special event: On June 19, 2025, Ambiente on the Golden Rider takes place in the technology of the long night of galleries. A highlight of the event are the exhibitions of the artist Karl Kujau, the nephew of the legendary art counter Konrad Kujau. As early as 6 p.m., art lovers can admire Karl's works, including his creative piece of jewelry, the "Kloppo Car".

Karl Kujau, born in Dresden in 1988, is known as a "Wendekind" and was able to learn his passion for painting from his uncle Konrad, who lived from 1938 to 2000. Konrad Kujau became known primarily through the falsification of the Hitler diaries and the associated scandals in the 1980s. The unveiling of these counterfeits caused one of the largest press scandals in German post -war history after Kujau sold 62 volumes for DM 9.3 million, which were initially considered real.

a new chapter of creativity

After the death of his uncle in 2000, Karl Kujau took a creative break, but found his way back to painting. His works focus primarily on motifs from football, with the focus of the players of his favorite club Dynamo Dresden and scenes from his hometown. He enjoys a growing fan base who appreciates his art.

It is particularly noteworthy how Karl Kujau combines his art with social engagement. He has devoted himself to new challenges through the “You’ll Never Walk Alone” project to help disadvantaged children. He also had the opportunity to interact with world stars like Sting, Katarina Witt and Udo Lindenberg. Pope Francis was also touched by a portrait that Kujau created from him.

on the long night of galleries

Another exciting aspect of the next long night of the galleries is the portrait that Karl Kujau created by Robbie Williams. This valuable work of art will be seen as part of the event and signed by the pop star himself with the title "Echt Kujau". The event not only promises an abundance of art, but also the opportunity to get in touch with the artists and to discover new perspectives.

The event lasts until midnight and offers a platform to combine art and social concerns. Karl Kujau thus impressively proves that the legends of the past - like his uncle Konrad of well -known artists from a completely different kind - can also be inspiration for creativity and social change today. The long night of galleries will be an unforgettable experience for art lovers and those who want to become.
