Early life


Ketter was born in Brunswick, Maine.[2] He received a degree in art from the State University of New York, Purchase in 1985.[2] Ketter worked initially as a carpenter and cabinetmaker, a skill which would become part of his artistic practice.[3][4][5]


Work


Ketter's work often invokes traditional carpentry and house construction methods,[1] and has been called minimalist in its form.[2][6][7] From 1992 to 1999, Ketter produced a series of paintings resembling actual wall sections and made of the traditional components of a wall, including gypsum, plaster and drywall screws.[2][4][8] In the 1990s he also began his so-called "kitchen works", creating minimalist sculptures that resemble IKEA kitchen cabinets constructed in unique forms and configurations.[9][10]

In 1996 he presented the show Clay Ketter: New Work at White Cube in London, England.[11] His work was included in Every Day" 11th Biennale of Sydney, 1998.[12][13] In 2009 Ketter's work was presented in a solo show at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm.[8][14]
