KATHLEEN GRECO is a conceptual visual artist. Greco received her MFA in Studio Arts from the University of the Arts, Philadelphia and a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Design from the Philadelphia College of Art. Greco’s artwork has been exhibited in museums and galleries including the Museum of Arts and Design, New York, Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Washington, D.C., Hayward Gallery, London, England, Woodmere Art Museum, Pennsylvania, Elisabet Ney Museum, Texas, Museum Frieder Burda, Baden-Baden, Germany, and Schlossmuseum, Linz, Austria. Her work has been featured in Artillery, Hyperallergic, and the Washington Post. She has lectured at universities and colleges including, Lafayette College and the Royal College of Art, London, England. Her sculpture was included in the collaborative Crochet Coral Reef Pod World’s installation in Getty’s PST ART: Art and Science Collide exhibition 2025 and in the 2019 Venice Biennale’s Central Pavilion, May You Live in Interesting Times, Venice, Italy.

Applying knowledge from her industrial design background, she pairs relationships of materials and techniques to conceptual themes in her artwork with diverse mediums including graphite, paper, and flower petals. Greco broadened her studio practice during an artist residency from the Civita Institute in the Etruscan hilltop town of Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy. Living in the ancient town atop the geologically vulnerable tufo volcanic rock, she explored fragility, preservation, and transition. She studied the local flora plants and began using flower petal pigment as a viable living medium. The experience laid the foundation for her current In Lieu of Flowers series.

Greco has written and produced more than twenty-five contemporary design, digital photography, typography, and art books with Hearst Books International, Rockport Publishers, and Watson Guptill Publications. She edited artist’s essays, curated contemporary artwork, and discussed artist's methodology. Titles include: DigitalFocus, Extreme Graphics, WebType, CyberPalette, and DigitalXposure edited by Kathleen (Ziegler) Greco. Many titles are housed in library collections worldwide including the School of The Art Institute of Chicago, The New School, University of Oxford, England, and Yale University.
