Ruup & Form is a curatorially driven contemporary gallery in London, championing material-led practices that disrupt and expand the spaces between art, craft and design. Founded in 2019 by curator and director Varuna Kollanethu, the gallery was
born from a conviction that meticulously made objects can be engines of change – binding communities, carrying stories across geographies, and opening more sustainable, imaginative futures. In 2026, Ruup & Form operates as a platform for breakthrough practices and ground‑breaking ideas in material and form. Our programme foregrounds collectible craft and design – unique and limited-edition works with a powerful narrative – alongside contemporary artworks that interrogate how we live with objects in domestic, architectural and public contexts. From textiles, ceramics and glass to wood, metal, paper and hybrid media, our focus is on the intelligence of making: the gestures, technologies and material experiments encoded within each piece.
