Black Cowboys at the Stadthaus Ulm: Photography, History, and a New Perspective on the Wild West

At the Stadthaus Ulm, on June 13, 2026, powerful imagery meets a theme with historical depth: Black Cowboys showcases the perspectives of Black cowboys and cowgirls in the USA and brings an often-overlooked history to the forefront. The exhibition combines documentary photography with a clear cultural-historical outlook, creating an exhibition experience that resonates long after.

A Theme that Breaks the Western Cliché

The presentation consciously begins where popular culture has painted a distorted picture for decades. The well-known narrative of the white cowboy is complemented by real biographies, encounters, and long-term photographic work. This creates a rich event atmosphere between education, remembrance, and visual power.

Photography with Attitude and Real Experience

Sabine Bungert and Stefan Dolfen worked for years on this project, traveling through several US states. They met people from rodeo, ranching, riding clubs, museums, and community initiatives. The result is a multifaceted look at identity, self-understanding, and cultural visibility – precisely curated and strongly staged for an audience that appreciates exhibitions with substance.

What Visitors Can Expect On-Site

The opening will take place on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM at the Stadthaus Ulm. According to the Stadthaus, the exhibition will run until September 20, 2026. Visitors to the exhibition will experience a central location, clear navigation, and a venue known for its cultural work and accessible entrances. Thus, the format is well-suited for a relaxed cultural appointment in the heart of Ulm.
