Jim Dine was born James Lewis Dine on June 16th, 1935 in Cincinnati, Ohio. His early family life was difficult, and by the time he was in high school he was living with his maternal grandparents, using art as an outlet for his frustrations. His first formal art training came when he enrolled in night courses at the Art Academy of Cincinnati while just 16. There Dine was heavily inspired by German Expressionist woodcuts by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Max Beckmann, and he began creating his own woodcuts in 1954. He enrolled at the University of Cincinnati, but was unsatisfied by their focus on design, rather than an overall immersion in the history and broad scope of art. While visiting a friend majoring in theater at Ohio University in Athens he became enamored with their location and program, transferring there in 1955. He studied under printmaker Donald Roberts, who helped him experiment with lithography, etching, intaglio, dry paint, and more. Roberts encouraged him to study privately with Ture Bengtz at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston for six months before returning to Ohio University and obtaining his bachelors in 1957. He married a fellow student, Nancy Minto that same year, with whom he went on to have five children, with three of them growing up to be artists as well (a photographer, an architect, and a glassblower). He and Nancy remained in Athens for a year while he served as an unpaid assistant to the University faculty to continue exploring printmaking and painting, and became a proponent of Neo-Dadaism and Abstract Expressionism before moving to New York to become a teacher at the Rhodes School. He founded the Judson Church Gallery in Greenwich Village with Claes Oldenburg and Marcus Ratliff, where he met Allan Kaprow and Bob Whitman, and the five of them became pioneers of happenings and art performances in the late 1950s. Dine’s first solo exhibition was at the Reuben Gallery, which also incorporated spoken word and audio recordings, setting the stage for his lifelong devotion to both art and poetry. He became linked to Pop Art through his inclusion in the pivotal “New Paintings of Common Objects” at the Pasadena Art Museum that included Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol, but frequently sought to distance himself from the movement, calling himself “too subjective.” Since the early 1960s Dine has developed a series of motifs in myriad forms and media, such as stuffed hearts as metaphors and bathrobes as surrogate self-portraits, and has found preferred locations to exhibit in, specifically London, Washington, Paris, Göttingen, and Putney, Vermont, where he currently maintains a home and studio. He has been a teacher at numerous universities, including Yale, Oberlin College, Cornell, Salzburg International Summer Academy of Fine Arts, and Hochschule der Künste in Berlin. His latest long-term collaboration and representation was with Gray Gallery in Chicago, which ended in 2021 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. He continues to make art as he approaches his 90s, with countless awards and permanent exhibitions of his work at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Guggenheim Museum.
