CityBeat Profiles Paul Kroner and the Evolution of Studio Kroner

Read the Full Article

I’m honored to share that Cincinnati CityBeat has published a feature article highlighting my journey as an artist, the growth of Studio Kroner, and the role the gallery has come to play within Cincinnati’s creative community.

When I opened Studio Kroner five years ago, my goal was simple: create a place where art could bring people together. What began as a working studio and exhibition space gradually evolved into something larger—a venue for artist talks, panel discussions, performances, community partnerships, and conversations about the issues that shape our lives.

The CityBeat article reflects on that evolution while also exploring my recent solo exhibition, What Have I Done?, which marked the gallery’s fifth anniversary. The story examines the balance between my work as an exhibiting artist and my commitment to supporting the work of others through Studio Kroner.

What means the most to me is that the article recognizes something I have believed from the beginning: art is often the starting point for deeper conversations. Whether through exhibitions focused on environmental sustainability, social issues, local culture, or personal expression, Studio Kroner has always sought to create opportunities for connection and dialogue.

I’m deeply grateful to the artists, patrons, volunteers, community partners, and friends who have helped shape Studio Kroner over these past five years. This recognition belongs as much to them as it does to me.

Thank you for being part of this journey. I look forward to continuing to build a space where art, community, and conversation intersect.
