Maynard Dixon: To The Desert Again

"The art of Maynard Dixon is about the land. The color, temperature, intensity, and vastness of the desert were his subjects; the rhythms and forces of nature were his themes. To experience Dixon's work over time and in quantity is to refresh our own senses and to remember our own fundamental connection with earth and sky. We might call him a poet and a politician in addition to painter, such is Dixon's power to enable us to feel both the energy and the elegance of our own geography and by extension, to reflect upon the importance of the earth to virtually everything we do."
