The Smiling Workman (1959)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dine became one of the first in the art world known as \u201ca progenitor of “Happenings,” interactive performance pieces that grew out of the experimental art scene in New York City during the late 1950s.\u201d (Britannica). In this piece Dine is covered with various colours on his face and body as he follows it with two actions. First he paints on a wall \u201cI love what I\u2019m doing, HELP\u201d and then drinks a can of paint which is really a can of tomato juice. At the end he jumps into the canvas destroying his work. The purpose of the performance piece is to make the audience more included.

Double Isometric Self-Portrait (1964)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This painting \u201cDouble Isometric Self-Portrait\u201d is a portrait made up of objects from his everyday life. This is because he believed that these objects gave more meaning and power to the piece as they are easily recognizable. In this image in particular he used a bathrobe. A bathrobe was significant to create the meaning of privacy as its \u201cvery close to the skin\u201d.

Ten Winter Tools (1972)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cTen Winter Tools\u201d is a series of 10 lithographs of various hardware tools. Although they are portrayed in a normal fashion there is a deeper underlying meaning to these pieces. It was explained by\u00a0 Thistlethwaite that the reason why Jim uses tool is because, “tools appeal to Dine for many reasons, but three stand out: their connection to his adolescence, their association with work and the worker, and their formal beauty.” To him one of the other main connections of tools was the ideation of art and human creativity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
