Over the past 50 years, American painter Lois Dodd (born 1927) has been recording the quieter moments of everyday life on New York's Lower East Side and in mid-coast Maine, infusing the modernist tradition of plein air painting with Shaker-like qualities of modesty, airiness and quiet elegance. Views from city windows, gentle scenes of washing lines in back gardens, the artist's shadow on a summer lawn with her painting tools at the far edge of the image: these objects of the painter's attention declare themselves while leaving room to breathe for both viewer and artist.
