Fragile Boy
Description

Jim Dine's "Fragile Boy" is a sly take on the famous puppet in the liminal state between being and being made out of wood. This work is  from his Pinocchio series, with added intimacy due to its unique background. Dine employed hand coloring after 8 litho layers were printed to achieve just the right saturation and highlighting of detail. Dine made a small edition of this print, only totaling 12 in the entire edition.

Jim Dine is one of the top contemporary artists in the US, and his works are included in major museums throughout the world.

Jim Dine: Printmaker, Painter and Poet of the Everyday Object

Jim Dine (born 1935, Cincinnati, Ohio) is one of the most prolific and technically adventurous printmakers of the past sixty years. He first emerged in New York’s late-1950s art scene alongside the Happenings and Pop art movements, but he has always resisted the Pop label. His work is intensely personal, autobiographical and hand-made. Jim Dine prints put that sensibility on paper: expressive, gestural and rooted in the physical act of drawing and cutting.
