Exhibition History

Facing Artists

February 27 - July 31, 2009

Jim Dine’s work from the 1960s imbued everyday objects with personal meaning. In 1964 he appropriated a bathrobe image from an advertisement in the New
York Times, using it as a symbolic self in a series of paintings that year and revisiting it frequently thereafter, as in this richly layered and sensuous print from the late 1970s.

Working the Stone

December 19, 1997 - April 5, 1998
