Jim Dine (b. 1935) is one ofAmericas best-known
image-makers. This book, published to
accompany the first major exhibition ofDines
work from the 1960s, reproduces a broad selection
ofhis early mixed-media works, paintings, and
sculptures. Many ofthe works featured in this
volume contain elements ofthe now-familiar
themes ofDines career: tools, robes, hearts,
palettes, and domestic interiors. Bringing
together fascinating performance photographs
with vivid full-color reproductions, the book is
the first to explore the complex relationship
between Dines mixed-media works and his
environments and theater pieces.
With essays by Germano Celant, Clare Bell, and
Julia Blaut; an interview with the artist,
combined with a selection ofhis poetry and
statements; and superb colorplates of the works
themselves, Jim Dine: Walking Memory. i959-I969
is an important addition to scholarship on the
1960s, perhaps the most significant period in
American art. Also included are a detailed
chronology and select bibliography.
