"It is a rarity today to find an artist to whom paint is such a complete language as it is to Bettina Reiber. There are, of course, plenty of artists for whom the textures and tactile dynamics of paint are their main interest, but they generally rely for success on some rather obvious visual or conceptual armature to support the whole. To shape the interplay of painterly marks into the deeper and more elusive language of perceived and meditated experience so that the material itself trembles with the vitality of place or person is an altogether greater undertaking."
