Ewald Kröner is a German contemporary artist and designer, who is considered to be the reference artist for tufted art tapestries and carpets. Since the 1960s, he has promoted artistic tapestries. His skill set included a number of complementary activities, such as editing, manufacturing and weaving. He is also a renowned distributor and designer. He began by weaving in his own workshop and home. In the 1970s, he purchased a castle and transferred his manufacturing to the Schloss Heckhausen. He managed his main showroom in Karlsruhe/Düsseldorf and had galleries in both Munich, Germany and Zurich, Switzerland.
Ewald’s first major event was his participation in the German Pavilion at the “1970 Osaka Expo”. Since then, his work has been regularly shown in nominative exhibitions of artists or more institutional events, such as for the Deutsche Bank and more recently, for UBS Lucarno in 2009. A retrospective show was organized in September 2006. The list of artists produced by Kröner is impressive and includes Bauer, Chagall, Claisse, Geiger, Hajek, Herbin, Hundertwasser, Kandinsky, Klimt, Miro, Mondriaan, Picasso, Rothko, Vasarely and Warhol.
Ewald Kröner also wove his own designs. In the 1980s, he developed a complete collection of small and medium pieces that were both original and of a uniquely high standard in the quality of composition. His work expresses the European abstract search for its forgotten tribal roots. His success is validated by the fact that his tapestries have become part of art collections globally and can be seen in prominent museums, including his artwork, Moon and Structures in the Kirkland Museum, USA.
