WOLCOTT DODGE
THE DOMESTIC ENGAGEMENT OF WOLCOTT DODGE
September 23 - October 10, 2016
About the Exhibition
Wolcott Dodge's painting and collages, as well as his found objects, merge an interest in modernist painting and assemblage, with a fascination for obsessive collecting and recycling. This exhibition revealed Dodge's democratic love for all materials, texture and pattern. A true romantic and collector, his work hearkens back to the collections of 19th century cabinets of curiosity, and his re-contexualized objects resonate with a sense of nostalgia for a past once lived, and a value long forgotten.
