Jim Dine, Walla Walla (Portrait of Diana Michener), 2022, charcoal on paper, 22 1/2 x 20 1/2 inches, Bowdoin College Museum of Art, Brunswick, Maine
Deeply engaged with the “human comedy,” Jim Dine will discuss his work and process in a talk presented in conjunction with Bowdoin College Museum of Art’s exhibition, Jim Dine: Last Year’s Forgotten Harvest (on view through 2 June 2024).
The talk begins at 4:30 PM and will be followed by a reception for the artist at 5:30 PM at the Museum. Jim will be joined by his wife, Diana Michener, and Co-Director of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art, Anne Collins Goodyear.
Jim Dine: Last Year’s Forgotten Harvest represents the first exhibition to focus on Dine’s portrayal of his family and friends. Featuring more than fifty works—donated by Dine to the Museum—spanning a period from 1957 to the present, the show also examines Dine’s deep engagement with drawing, his technique of choice for portraiture.

JOURNAL Issue #1, Design: Vincent Broqua, Daniel Clarke and Jim Dine, FRAG, Paris
Why does poetry matter?
Although some may speak of the demise of poetry, we’re seeing a revitalization, which testifies its ongoing urgency as an art.
More than ever, we are in need of dialogue that activates the language of poetry.
Join contributors Jim Dine, Hugo Pernet, Ghazal Mosadeq, Elke de Rijcke, Vincent Broqua, and Daniel Clarke for a reading and discussion of the need for poetry of the present.
Edited by the poet and artist, Jim Dine and poet and translator, Vincent Broqua, Journal is a new poetry magazine that seeks to publish international poets. The Library is delighted to host the launch of the first issue, with contributions from sixteen international authors.
Celebrating a wide spectrum of voices who are political, lyrical, conceptual, visual, comic, and more, it represents the liveliness of poetry today with a renewed sense of vitality.

125 Newbury is located in New York City’s Tribeca neighborhood, at the corner of Walker Street and Broadway
In the newest exhibition at 125 Newbury—Jim Dine: The Sixties—the gallery has assembled more than a dozen paintings, sculptures, and works on paper by Jim Dine.
This selection of early works, which centers primarily on the 1960s but includes works dating from 1959 through the early 1970s, reflects Dine’s exploration of the poetic force of everyday things. The show developed from the longtime friendship between the artist and Arne Glimcher, who presented numerous exhibitions of Dine’s work at Pace, beginning in 1976.
Celebrating the eclecticism and adventurousness of the artist’s early experimentations, the show traces key themes in the arc of his work over a 15-year period.

Jim Dine, Two British Vases, 2013, lithograph and heliogravure with hand colouring on two sheets of Rives BFK White paper, 24 x 39 1/2 inches, edition of 19
Co-curated by artist Clare Woods, Still Live traces one of the most time-honored pictorial genres in art history over six decades.
Cristea Roberts Gallery is delighted to present Still Live, a group show co-curated by Clare Woods (b. 1972) whose exhibition Soft Knock, featuring a body of new works on paper exploring still life and the classical trope of memento mori, will be exhibited simultaneously at the gallery.
Still Live (8 March – 27 April 2024) features prints and editions tracing one of the most time-honored pictorial genres in art history over six decades. Examples of rare and important prints of the twentieth century including work by Georges Braque (1882-1963), Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), Tom Wesselmann (1931-2004), Patrick Caulfield (1936-2005), and Michael Craig-Martin (b. 1941), each artist revisits the historical tradition of still life, drawing subject matter and sometimes forms and colors from the masters of modern art, including Picasso, Braque, Matisse, and Warhol.
Jim Dine’s (b. 1935) depictions of flowers and plants, which have long been an enduring theme in his work, are drawn directly from nature. Taking inspiration from the lush gardens and vegetation of his surroundings, Dine’s botanical works appear in different stages of bloom and growth. A recent triptych bursts with a colourful variety of flowers, plants, fruit and vegetables.

JIM DINE: DOG ON THE FORGE
20 April — 21 July 2024
La Biennale di VeneziA
Jim Dine - Dog on the Forge presents 32 new works from the artist. Paintings, drawings, bronze and wood sculptures, as well as an impressive outdoor installation of large-scale bronze sculptures. The exhibition debuts monumental and site-specific works conceived specifically for the Biennale. Never-before-exhibited paintings and sculptures will be arranged in dialogue with each other and with artworks spanning from the ‘80s through today. Curator Gerhard Steidl drew inspiration from Dine’s relentless odysseys between the United States and Europe, as well as his lifetime dedication to the concept of visual, cultural, and linguistic hybridization. “My whole life, I’ve been in motion. I find it difficult to sit still. It's a hyperactive quality, I would say. I’ve always enjoyed going from studio to studio, country to country. For me, traveling is like using red. It’s another thing to make the picture.”
