图书标签: art A
Trying to realize the depth of his aesthetic and profane reality, the books are also documents of an artistic consciousness, of an intense biography, of personal likes and dislikes, of formal richness and of exploding craftsmanship, of an exceptional imagination. These books invent the context for a new melody for the art of Jim Dine, for all the major byways of this seemingly inexhaustible creativity, which combines dream and reality – it is a composition for all the people who would like to sing a new song, maybe their own song. Dine has reflected authentically on his own identity and through it the identity of reality, nature, art, thoughts, feelings in an extraordinary poetic way: We see a POEM, we read an IMAGE. They are books one may read and regard as a summary of an unusual life.
"This Hot Dream first appeared as an idea 3 years ago. Steidl embraced and blessed the project so I went ahead. I stewed about it for 2 years then I stood around waiting to talk to Gerhard about it then finally I got down to putting the books together. My method, as in all my work, is the use of collage, painting and drawing, and correcting; coupled with my writing and my untouched photographs. The fact of making a book a week and the sensual possibilities i.e. the act of making a union with humans through the smell of the ink on the paper, the feel of the images and words. Hot Dream tells a lot about me, Dine, and book-making."
Jim Dine, Göttingen, June 2008
