About the Artist
Katy Krantz is a Los Angeles-based artist whose multidisciplinary practice includes painting, ceramics and community-based public art. Her work centers on process and play, with the studio’s unpredictable nature playing a vital role.

She has exhibited across the United States and abroad at venues such as the Oakland Museum and the Richmond Art Center, as well as the City Museum of Cuernavaca in Mexico. She has had solo shows at IKO IKO space in Los Angeles, Totokaelo in Seattle and Sunday Takeout in Brooklyn. Krantz’s public projects can be seen throughout Los Angeles County. Her work was featured in Kate Singleton’s 2016 book, “Ceramics: Contemporary Artists Working in Clay.” She is a 2020-2021 Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs artist-in-residence grantee and is currently serving as Culver City’s 2023-2025 Artist Laureate.
