Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Bethan Huws (born 1961) is a Welsh multi-media artist whose work explores place, identity, and translation, often using architecture and text.[1][2] Her work has been described as "delicate, unobtrusive interventions into architectural spaces".[2]

Life and career

Huws was born in Bangor, Wales in 1961.[3] English is her second language, with Welsh being her vernacular.[4] She studied at Middlesex Polytechnic between 1981 and 1985[5] and at the Royal College of Art, London, between 1986 and 1988.[5] At her graduate show, Huw's presented an empty studio 'having chiselled clean, inch by inch, the entire wooden-floor'.[6]

Huws' first major solo exhibition was Art Cologne 1989 at Koelnmesse GmbH in Cologne.[7] Other notable exhibitions include the Anthony Reynolds Gallery (1988), Riverside Studios (1989), Kunsthalle Bern (1990), Luis Campana Gallery (1991), the Venice Biennale (2003) and the Ingleby Gallery (2011).[2][8][9]

In 1991, Huws moved to Paris, France.[6]

In 1993, Huws made a film called Singing for the Sea in which eight Bulgarian women sing and dance on a beach on the North Sea coast in Northumberland, wearing traditional Bulgarian dress. The performance took place over three evenings in front of a live audience, and the resulting 12-minute film was exhibited in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Antwerp.[9]

Huws was awarded the Adolf-Luther-Trust Art Award in 1998.[10]

Between 1999 and 2000, Huws undertook The Henry Moore Sculpture Fellowship at the British School at Rome.[10]

In 2004, she won the Ludwig Gies-Award for Small-sized Sculpture by LETTER Trust, Cologne, Germany.[10]

She won the B.A.C.A. Europe 2006 award given by the Bonnefantenmuseum in Maastricht.[10]

Huws was the DAAD Artist-in-Residence between 2007 and 2008 in Berlin, Germany.[10]

Huws has lived in Berlin since 2010.[4]

Artistic style

Huws' work is centred around the re-imagining of spaces through intervention.[11] Through the use of multi-media materials, her work interrupts and redirects understanding.[11] Self-investigation is also required by the viewer to create a new interpretation of space.[3] There is a universal commentary within her work, conveying messages that can be understood without language.[6] Heavily basing her practice on Duchamp, Huws' work is often satirical, reinventing spaces in a parodical way.[3] This is achieved through her use of lettering, exemplified in works such as 'Piss off I'm a Fountain'.[1] Similarly, Huws plays with readymade elements to construct artistic perspectives.[12] She is also influenced by René Magritte's intellectual work.[3] Identity is another theme central to Huws' work, often reflecting on her life as a Welsh artist.[3] Her landscapes are usually created from memory, typically depicting farming scenes in North Wales.[6] From a young age Huws has used reeds to make miniature boats.[1] These boats carry subjective value to Huws due to their link to Wales and are incorporated creatively into her work.[12]
