Winfried Krüger

"In the context of contemporary art jewellery, Winfried Krüger's work is modest and non-conformist. Unfazed by the boundaries of his genre he experiments with everything that inspires him: the profile of a sole of a shoe, the set of a science fiction film or even shadows that contrast hazily to their surroundings. Krüger understands not only how to translate things into metal but also how to show an innovative appreciation of jewellery. In a comprehensive retrospective this publication presents his diverse jewellery series since the 1960s for the first time."--Page [4] of cover.
