Kathy Erteman is a New York-based ceramic artist dividing her time between studios in New York City and the Hudson Valley. With a studio practice spanning more than 40 years, Erteman creates vessels as well as wall mounted compositions and installations. Employing technical expertise with a modernist aesthetic, her work demonstrates a reductive approach to formal composition resulting in works that are minimal in form activated by abstract surface decoration and energetic texture.

A full time studio artist, she is represented by Hostler Burrows Gallery, and has designed for companies such as Tiffany and Crate & Barrel. Erteman teaches at Greenwich House Pottery in New York City, and periodically travels to Yunnan, China to work with the Nixi Tibetan Potters as a Design Consultant and Cultural Preservation Advocate.

Erteman, a native of Santa Monica, CA, received her BFA in ceramics from California State University Long Beach. After graduating, she interned with Judy Chicago, working on The Dinner Party. Erteman's work has been exhibited internationally and is included in private and public collections including the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institute, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Taipei Museum of Fine Arts, Icheon World Ceramic Museum, and the Johnson Collection.
