Brief biography at: Guggenheim Museum

"I don't deal exclusively with the popular image. I'm more concerned with it as a part of my landscape. Pop Art is only one facet of my work. More than popular images, I'm interested in personal images..." ~  Jim Dine, quoted in Art News, November 1963 (from Artcyclopedia)

Jim Dine worked with several different themes - Hearts, robes, Venus de Milo, and tools were the most common.
