John Motley Review
John Motley of the Oregonian reviewed the Generations: Betty Feves exhibition. In “A ceramic artist known for her down-to-earth approach,” Motley calls the exhibition “wonderful.” He goes on to write. “If Feves’ principal medium of clay anchored her work in a craft tradition, her studies with abstract painter Clyfford Still and Cubist sculptor Alexander Archipenko inspired her to graft Modernism’s searching expressionism and reductive formalism onto flatware, vessels and urns. She produced sturdy kitchenware adorned with vertiginous spirals, rhythmically splattered waves of paint, and modish interpretations of leaves and pine needles. “
