Jim Dine ranks alongside figures such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Wayne Thibaud among others as one of the celebrated stars of American Pop Art. From the artist's generous donation to the Albertina, a representative selection of 100 fascinating self-portraits is shown that presents Dine in demeanors both unusual and self-critical. The self-portraits, which Dine began painting in the 1950s, serve to catalyze an independent, intense, and surprising dialog with the artist and his output. And 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.
