I take my humor seriously. I focused intently and took a survey, then plunged deeply and engrossed myself into the grocery aisles to find these pairings and made monuments to my match-made couples’ various proclivities. I honor their diversity and their freedom of expression. I bronzed their essence and photographed them in a white bed of light to reveal their true natures; they gleam with a confident appreciative post-coital sigh.” – Hubby
No need to explain more how Bettina Hubby’s art, it is smart and hilarious.
For the exhibition shown at Klowendenmann, Los Angeles, (see images) she combined day to day objects in a way that Marcel Duchamp would have certainly loved! Besides the exhibition she has transformed those “Sexual Bronze” into hilarious temporary tattoos, look here: https://www.hubbyco.com/product-page/sexual-bronze-tattoos
She has also created and published a bunch of art books
In her personal artwork process she explores all the possible ways to show through many techniques from traditional prints, bronze to 3D printing.
Not only she develops her own creation, she also conducts curatorial projects…. where she can express different ways of showing art
As you see, Bettina HUBBY has multiple creative facets. She is innovative, creative, technically perfect with vision.. all criteria made to be part of our Established artist selection
