Bettina Blohm’s work is an amalgamation of the European tradition and American Process painting. Blohm's paintings hint at geometry, although they are rendered with a free hand. Lines slip, and tilt or bend the space, Bettina Blohm's works have an appearance of being in flux, of unstable geometry.
Bettina Blohm (*1961, Hamburg, Germany) lives in New York and Berlin. In Berlin, she concentrates on works on paper whereas the paintings are made in New York.
