Gunter Ullrich Stiftung Aschaffenburg (GUSA)

The Gunter Ullrich Foundation Aschaffenburg (GUSA) was established in 2014 by the Ullrich family and representatives of the city of Aschaffenburg as a non-independent foundation within the museums of the city of Aschaffenburg. It holds an extensive collection of more than 550 graphics by the artist Gunter Ullrich (woodcuts and linocuts, etchings) as well as additional archival materials such as collages, printing blocks, and sketchbooks. The foundation's goal is to research, preserve, and make accessible to the public the multifaceted oeuvre. At the same time, GUSA supports scholarly publications and exhibitions and organizes the Gunter Ullrich Prize for Art Education, awarded every two years.

The Gunter Ullrich Foundation Aschaffenburg is dedicated to sustainably preserving and widely conveying the life's work of Gunter Ullrich. Through collection preservation, research, exhibitions, and awards, it enables art historians, art educators, and art enthusiasts to engage deeply with his oeuvre. The foundation aims to highlight Gunter Ullrich's significance as a chronicler of his time and to inspire future generations for local and regional art history.

The offerings of GUSA are aimed at art historians, art educators, students and teachers, museums, artists, as well as a generally art-interested audience. In particular, the foundation supports projects in the field of art education and addresses schools, universities, and independent initiatives with the Gunter Ullrich Prize. Additionally, it invites scholars to research printmaking and the artistic backgrounds of Ullrich.
