Vorlage:EngvarB Vorlage:Use dmy dates Karl Fritsch (born 1963) is a German-born contemporary jeweller who has since 2009 been based in New Zealand.[1]

Early life and education

Fritsch was born in 1963 in Sonthofen, Germany. He originally intended to study woodcarving but missed the application deadline, and he mother encouraged him to apply to a jewllery school.[2] trained as a goldsmith at the Goldschmiedeschule Pforzheim and worked for a jeweller before attending the Akademie der Bildenden Künste, München between 1987 and 1994, studying under Hermann Junger and Otto Kunzli.[3][4]

Career and work

In 1994 Fritsch established a jewellery workshop in Munich.[5] In 2006 he received the Françoise van den Bosch Award, given every 2 years to 'an international jewellery and object maker who is recognised for his/ her oeuvre, influence and contribution to the field'.[6] In 2009 Fritsch moved to New Zealand with his partner, New Zealand contemporary jeweller Lisa Walker.[7]

Fritsch primarily focuses on making rings, although he occasionally makes other pieces of jewellery and objects.[8] His work is characterised by rough finishes, visible fingerprints, the use of oxidised silver, and mixing high and low materials, such as precious stones, plastic pearls, and glass gemstones.[9] He uses lost wax casting, moulding, and reshaping of found materials to make his jewellery.[10] He is also known for creating unusual displays of his work in private and public galleries.[11]

In a 2015 interview Fritsch stated:

A key moment was while studying at the Munich academy around 1991/92 when instead of melting down the old jewellery I bought for casting, I started to fix the pieces instead. It was a revelation to be able to use those pre-existing often conventional pieces of jewellery. I had learnt to make conventional jewellery in Pforzheim and conventional jewellery is what was around in Sonthofen where I grew up. From that moment on I understood how to access all the conventional jewellery skills I had learnt and use them in my own way, I started to really own what I had been taught. I could suddenly set a stone, saw, file , hammer , cast, solder, the way I wanted and not just the way I had been taught .[12]

Fritsch has taught at art schools around the world.[13][14] He also works collaboratively with a range of artists, including Feierabend (2009, Kate MacGarry, London) and Gesamtkunsthandwerk (2011, Govett-Brewster Art Gallery) with artist Francis Upritchard and furniture designer Martino Gamper, and two projects with photographer Gavin Hipkins.[5][15][16]

Fritsch's work is held in many international museum collections, including the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Neue Pinakothek Munich, the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Museum of Arts and Design New York and the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.[6][17][18][19][20]
