Lois Dodd's Lyrical Landscapes on View in New York at Alexandre Gallery
The Alexandre Gallery in New York is wrapping up a retrospective of Lois Dodd's panel paintings, providing a succinct glimpse into her artistic journey. Titled 'Lois Dodd: Selected Panel Paintings,' this exhibition began last summer at The Kemper Museum in Kansas City, Missouri, and is also currently displayed at the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, Maine. Dodd's artistry is characterized by its understated yet striking nature, merging a straightforward American perspective with Asian-inspired tranquility and spontaneity. Critic Robert Berlind likened her style to the Shaker principle of simplicity. Among the showcased works is 'Tree Shadow on Snow,' an oil on masonite from 1995, measuring 13 by 17 inches. The exhibition will be open until February 16, 2013, at 41 East 57th Street in the Fuller Building. Dodd's paintings capture lyrical landscapes through intricate details and surprising elements.
