Unbeschreiblich weiblich

Unbeschreiblich weiblich is a relief-like marble sculpture by Herbert A. Böhm, standing on Königstraße in Stuttgart’s city centre. Red Ruhpoldinger marble gives the surface its distinctive material presence. The work measures 2.5 metres by 1.23 metres by 0.48 metres, making its substantial form visible beside the busy street. Its relief-like structure invites direct looking and leaves room for conversation and interpretation.

Böhm created the sculpture in 1979, and it first appeared at the Bundesgartenschau in Bonn. Later displays took it to the International Art Congress in Stuttgart and Maulbronn Monastery. The city of Stuttgart purchased it in 1981 and placed it along Königstraße, where public art meets everyday movement. City ownership keeps this red marble work in a public setting accessible to everyone.
