Bettinson Exhibition
‘LEST WE FORGET’ the new solo exhibition will be on view 8/15 -11/11/18. Bettinson’s 21 new paintings commemorate the centennial of the WW1 battles in Belgium and Northern France. They come as a sequel to her series “The Earth Remembers” and are part of a decade long preoccupation with the impact of total war upon the landscape and its populations.
Brenda Bettinson has exhibited extensively in Europe and the US. She has had one–person showings of her work in prestigious galleries and museums such as, in Maine, the Ogunquit Museum of American Art. Her work hangs in numerous public and private collections.
