- Lot Description
Lois Dodd
(American, b. 1927)
January Window, 1987
Oil on Masonite
22" x 12"
Signed, titled, and dated to the reverse. Attached is a Fischbach Gallery (New York) label.
Idiosyncratic moments framed by windows are an enduring motif throughout Dodd's body of work. In fact, another oil depicting this particular window, entitled View of Neighbors House in Winter (1977-78), was shown in Dodd's 2012 retrospective Catching the Light, at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.
In a review of the 2003 Lois Dodd exhibition Windows and Doorways: Three Decades of Painting, New York Times art critic Grace Glueck wrote: "Translating the commonplace into art has long been the province of Lois Dodd, a conservative but uncommonly accomplished painter who celebrates the richness of everyday life. This survey of work from 1971 through 1992 deals with her recurring motifs of doors and windows, viewed in her paintings as passages to interior space as well as to the outside world. Often preceding, then surviving, the human beings they serve, these simple passages symbolize time and memory as well as the here and now."
