Exploring Jim Dine’s Portrait Drawings
This December, the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾ College Museum of Art will open “Jim Dine: Last Year’s Forgotten Harvest,” an exhibition featuring over 60 of the artist’s exceptional portrait-drawings, created over the past six and a half decades. While Dine has long been celebrated for his fearless and candid self-portraiture, this is the first exhibition to delve deeply into the artist’s portraits of others. Through this constellation of individuals, many of whom Dine has known over many years, we observe how portraiture can register the intensity of human connection experienced through time. The exhibition, which grows out of several generous recent gifts of drawings by Dine to the Museum, will provide audiences with an opportunity to see works never or only rarely presented publicly. “Jim Dine: Last Year’s Forgotten Harvest” will open on December 7, 2023.
