Limited Edition Jim Dine & Louis Icart Works Available in Buds of Spring Sale of Modern & Contemporary Art

The gestural nature and the use of collage and found objects link Jim Dine’s paintings with art movements like Abstract Expressionism and Neo-Dada. Dine (b. 1935) is an American artist whose career extends over 60 years. Dine’s paintings of flora, skulls, birds, and figurative self-portraits capture his intense autobiographical reflection and criticism of self. Details from Nancys Garden (from The Temple of Flora) is a rare limited-edition artwork by Dine and a strong example of the combination of his techniques. Created in 1984, it has dry point engraving and an electric tool with hand-coloring on Rives BFK paper. This hand-signed painting of a collage of flowers by Dine with the inscription “Happy Birthday 3.7.84 JD,” is available in the Buds of Spring Sale of Modern & Contemporary Art with Dane Fine Art this April. 

Another rare find in this sale is a limited-edition, original dry-point etching with hand coloring on paper by Louis Icart. It is a hand-signed etching of a young person with a dog riding a motorcar in a painting titled Motorcar (circa 1923). Louis Icart (1888 – 1950) mastered the techniques of 18th-century French masters. His paintings often portray women with pets in familiar circumstances, yet in a visually appealing manner. The sale offers more than 1,000 original artworks from the 21st century’s celebrated and diverse artists.
