Making rings: A ring can say a lot and sometimes exactly the right thing. A Workshop with Karl Fritsch

Fritsch has taught in art schools across the world, exhibited internationally, and his work has been acquired for public collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the National Gallery of Victoria and Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. A practice that focuses on the ring, Fritsch explores taste, aesthetics and desire as he manipulates perceived ideas of preciousness and convention. The highly covetable rings have seen him win numerous awards and become a cult figure in contemporary jewellery. He also works collaboratively with a range of artists, including artist Francis Upritchard and furniture designer Martino Gamper.

In 2006 he received the highly prestigious international Françoise van den Bosch Award. 
In 2024 he was a finalist for the LOEWE Foundation Craft Prize.
