Online Collection.

The ALBERTINA Museum is showing 60 of Jim Dine’s fascinating self-portraits, a representative selection from the 80-year-old artist’s generous donation to the museum that presents him in a great number of his many facets. This group of works makes possible an independent, intense, and surprising dialogue with the artist and his output. Here, Dine’s diverse experiments with a wide range of techniques and materials address themes including youth and old age, intimacy and extroversion, seriality, and creativity on paper. And not insignificantly, these self-portraits open up new insights into a supposedly familiar oeuvre.

The self-portraits, which Dine began painting in the 1950s, serve to catalyze an independent, intense, and surprising dialogue with the artist and his output. Dine’s diverse experiments with a wide range of techniques and materials address themes including youth and old age, intimacy and extroversion, and seriality and creativity on paper—enabling these self-portraits to open up new insights into a supposedly familiar oeuvre.
