Jim Dine is renowned not only for his mastery of different art forms—among them painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking and poetry—but for dynamic combinations of these. Such are the works in 49 Views on the North Crescent, drawings of plants and tools on aluminum printing plates Dine had already prepared for lithographs. Plants and tools are not simply two of the beloved motifs the artist has nurtured and redefined over decades; they are ones that speak specifically of growth—the patient blooming of nature and the visceral emergence of Dine’s sculptural works through his hammers, chisels, pliers and more. These 49 views embody the now of Dine’s art, the movement of the black grease crayon held in his hand, yet they also “commemorate my being brought, as a one-week-old infant, back to my grandmother’s house, 91 years ago, on the North Crescent in Cincinnati, Ohio’s Jewish ghetto.” As ever, past and present, reflection and action define the compelling future of Dine’s art.
