Abstract
Description
After Bettie’s visit to Paris in 1956 she was greatly influenced by the non-figurative
work of the avant-garde artists. In works such as this abstract
composition we see Bettie’s striving for purity of form and colour, with emphasis
on the schematic and cerebral. Here she finds expression in a world of
autonomous forms and shapes.
