Dody

France  • 1920

Presentation

Dody is a painter and engraver, born in France in 1920 in the North of France.

She entered the Beaux-Arts de Roubaix in 1937, had her first exhibition in 1958 and died in 2016, having painted and engraved until the end of her life.

For more than 50 years she has presented her works in personal and collective exhibitions throughout France and Belgium.

Always in search of techniques, colors and materials, her style is lyrically abstract but she has always worked from personal inspiration. Her painting explodes with colors and relief. And this monochrome period, almost isolated in the majority of her work, completes her pictorial exploration.

Her oil painting on canvas “Blanc, White, monochrome painting from 1970, 65 x 46 cm Inch: 25 5/8 x 18 1/8 inches" was exhibited at the Salon d'Art Sacré Art et Matière organized under the high patronage of Jean-Philippe Lecat, Minister of Culture, and Jacques Chirac, Mayor of Paris.
