"I am an object maker." Jim Dine Night Fields, Day Fields is a
survey of Jim Dine's sculpture from 1959 to 2009. Dine is commonly
seen as a prolific painter, printmaker and photographer whose
central practice is drawing, but this book shows that sculpture is
just as important in his oeuvre. Here we discover Dine's favourite
and reoccurring motifs: hearts, tools, skulls, and Pinocchio, as
well as Classical sculpture in the form of Venus de Milo and Winged
Victory. Dine's media are as diverse as his themes and include
bronze, wood, glass and found objects. His styles are similarly
manifold, testament to an artist who has shrugged off the trappings
of Pop Art to develop an eclectic body of styles that is unique and
authoritative in contemporary art. Born in 1935 in Cincinnati,
Ohio, Jim Dine completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University
of Ohio in 1957, and has since become one of the most profound and
prolific contemporary artists. Dine's unparalleled career spans
fifty years and his work is held in numerous private and public
collections. His books at Steidl include Birds (2001), The
Photographs, so far (2003), and Hot Dream (52 Books) (2008).
