Bethan Huws
Wednesday, February 6 - Saturday, March 29  


Over the the past twenty-five years Bethan Huws has produced a multifaceted body of work in various media: watercolors, sculptures, text based works presented both in museums and in outdoor spaces and, more recently 35 mm films that she has scripted and directed. Huws’ art is grounded in the innovations of minimal and conceptual art. Her equally poetic and analytical art is also based on her extensive readings in the fields of linguistics and psychology, her involvement with the ideas of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Marcel Duchamp, and a singular perspective on things afforded by her rural, Welsh background.

The Massachusetts Review, the prestigious literary journal with national circulation, will devote a section of their Winter 2008 issue to Bethan Huws’ art and will feature her work on its cover. Copies of this journal can be purchased at www.massreview.org.
