Florence Lynch Gallery, New York
Margaret Evangeline has written of Odili Donald Odita's paintings: "This is not the minimal hard edge painting of the 60's, but a version in which something goes awry, goes off, beyond the canvas's edge. Its idiosyncratic repetitions seduce the viewer into contemplation, into the absence created by the voice cut short."
