Bettina Scholl-Sabbatini (born 1942) is a Luxembourg sculptor, painter and ceramist.[1] As a result of her participation in Soroptimist International Europa, where she served as vice-president from 2003 to 2005, she fostered an increasingly close relationship with Rwanda, where she has coordinated development projects following the Tutsi genocide.[2] Her visits have also inspired her artistic designs. As a result, Rwanda exhibited her works at the 2010 Venice Biennale of Architecture.[3]

She works with bronze, stone and loam and also paints.[4] She has created works for public spaces and for many churches and chapels, including those in the Luxembourg localities of Bascharage, Bertrange, Dudelange, Lellig and Merl.
