Kathy Ertman (American, b. 1952) is a ceramic artist dividing her time between studios in New York City and the Hudson Valley, NY. With a studio practice spanning more than 40 years, Erteman creates both functional and non-functional vessels, and wall mounted works. Employing a self-described modernist aesthetic and reductive approach to composition, she creates works that are minimal in form, activated by surface decoration and subtle texture. Erteman’s work has been collected extensively by both private individuals and public institutions.
