Jim Dine<br />
Hello Yellow Glove<br />
Jim Dine’s status as a master draughtsman is unquestioned and this book presents the best of his most recent drawings.<br />
Hello Yellow Glove opens with one of Dine’s most treasured motifs, Pinocchio. Using dense charcoal and dripping<br />
washes, Dine depicts the sinister edge to Carlo Collodi’s story and Pinocchio’s isolation in his quest to become a real<br />
boy. With similar dark layers and dissolving forms Dine also depicts botanical motifs such as the thistle and catalpa tree.<br />
In addition to these bodies of work, Hello Yellow Glove presents Dine’s portrait of Gerhard <strong>Steidl</strong>, an ambitious suite<br />
of nine drawings made by the artist in his Göttingen studio. Alongside reproductions of the drawings are photographs<br />
of Dine taken by <strong>Steidl</strong> during the sittings, which form both a candid portrait of the artist and offer a rare glimpse into<br />
his working processes.<br />
Born in 1935 in Cincinnati, Ohio, Jim Dine is a prolific painter, draughtsman, print-maker and photographer. Initially<br />
associated with the Pop movement, Dine’s career spans over forty years and his work is held in many private and public<br />
collections. His books with <strong>Steidl</strong> include Birds (2001), The Photographs, so far (2003) and Hot Dream (52 Books)<br />
(2008).<br />
