Jim Dine

Tools and Dreams
    “At three years old, I remember sitting on the steps outside my grandfather’s garage and taking pieces of pipe, and rolling them down the stairs, just letting them go, like a Slinky toy, but it was pipe..."

    We are delighted to announce a solo exhibition, Jim Dine: Tools and Dreams, by artist Jim Dine which seeks to illustrate Dine’s lifelong relationship with hand-tools, featuring over forty works on paper, some monumental in scale, from the 1970s to the present. Throughout his printmaking career, tools have been a constant for the artist, not only as utilitarian implements used to mark his plates and blocks, but also as ‘objects of desire.’

    The exhibition will be closed 21 December – 1 January.
