#UnderTheMoonlight 2 ⁡ “I want you to know one thing. ⁡ You know how this is: if I look at the crystal moon, at the red branch of the slow autumn at my window, if I touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body of the log, everything carries me to you, as if everything that exists, aromas, light, metals, were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me.” — Pablo Neruda《If You Forget Me》 ⁡ A New Jersey-born artist who began her career in New York City in the 1940s, Lois Dodd’s observational painting over the decades has become an ode to nature in its short-term flux and long-term rhythms. ⁡ One of the founding members of #TanagerGallery (1952-1962), a legendary artist-run space frequented by figures such as #AlexKatz , #WillemDeKooning , #PhilipGuston and #HelenFrankenthaler in the experimental Tenth Street milieu, Dodd has stayed committed to painting figurative scenes despite changing fashions. ⁡ Influenced by principles of observed #naturallight , Dodd adopts a subdued palette and a shorthand of synoptic brushstrokes, with which to impart her vision. ⁡ She often returns to familiar motifs repeatedly at different times of the year with dramatically varied results, with subjects include lush summer gardens, views through interior windows, and nocturnal #moonlight skies. Her loves for the observed world and the vagaries of nature preserve the beauty camouflaged in ordinary and occasionally enigmatic details. ⁡ Lois Dodd (American, 1927-) 《Contrail And Moon》1996 Oil on aluminium flashing © Lois Dodd ⁡ * current exhibition 《Lois Dodd》 Alexandre Gallery, New York 2021.09.09 — 10.23 @alexandregallery ⁡ * upcoming exhibition 《Painting the Moon and Beyond: Lois Dodd and Friends Explore the Night Sky》 Trenton City Museum, NJ 2021.11.19 — 2022.04.29 @ellarslie_tcm#LoisDodd #AmericanPainter #NewYorkArtist #MaineArtist #AlexandreGallery #LowerEastSideGalleries #TrentonCityMuseum #Ellarslie #EnPleinAir #PleinAirPainting #landscape #figurativepainting #abstractpainting #contemporaryart #artmarket #artcollection #GreatWomenArtists #WomenInTheArts #風景畫 #當代藝術 #藝術市場 #藝術收藏
