Thomas Ranft is an award-winning draftsman and printmaker based in Germany whose works have been extensively exhibited on a national level, as well as in Switzerland and the United States. Inspired by his love of literature and music, he describes himself as always having been overwhelmed by the "fantastic detail" .
Thomas Ranft was born in war torn Germany in Königsee (Thüringen) in 1945 and initially trained as an horticulturist. From 1967 to 1972 he then attended the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst in Leipzig Germany. From 1976 on he undertook various print projects for contemporary artists. In 1979 he was one of the founding members of the artist group/gallery CLARA MOSCH. He is now being noticed and after collaboration with gallerist Gunar Barthel in 2003, he receives his first major award for his ‘ Idee vom Anderssein’ the coveted Hans Theo Richter-Preis of the Sächsischen Akademie der Künste.
Ranft enjoys prolific representation on the major European art fairs, such as the Art Basel, Arco Madrid, Art etc.
From 1976 up to the present Thomas Ranft has regularly held numerous solo and group exhibitions mainly in Germany, Switzerland and the United States.
Today examples of his fantastic work are kept in many important private and public collections.

- Beautiful Bath , No. 23 1996 by Karl Gerich of Bath - Playing Card Proof PrintLocated in Meinisberg, CHKarl Alexander Gerich (English, 23.4.1956 - 4.1.2016) Beautiful Bath No. 23, 1996 - Etching - Sheet ca. 29.9 x 29.9 cm - No plate mark (trimmed sheet) This pack is said to be Karl’s declaration of Love to his chosen city of Bath. Each card narrates a part of Bath’s rich history. The court cards depict portraits of personalities – real and legendary – who shaped the city of Bath as it is today. Ufinished, proof print with depictions of the court cards of diamonds and clubs, but an empty cartouche where Karl himself will appear at a later state as the joker, playing mandolin. On one of the documenting photos you can see a photo copy of what the joker card would look like. Sheet is in good condition and suitable to be framed. Karl was a brilliant playing card maker and certainly one of the most genius artist-craftsmen I had the pleasure to learn about his work and know. He could do it all: Come up with the tale, weave meaning(s) into it, fill it with spirited characters of his liking, draw it, etch it, print it, colour it and handcraft the inks, paper and card into wondersome packs of playing cards, each of them living in their own, most exquisitely crafted boxes. Every pack a magical marvel, filled with the spirit of this genius card maker … All this he did using his Adana printing press, very simple hand tools and great skill. When Karl closed down his studio in St.Peter’s Terrace in Bath, England and moved to Poplar Close, he sold off work for which he felt he no longer wanted to be the custodian. So a number of prints reached the market then. Printed sheets by Karl Gerich...Category
