Etching and aquatint in colors on Zerkall White paper, signed in pencil, dated - Published/printed by Gesselschaft der Freunde der Albertina/Werkstatt für Handgedrcukte Original-Graphik, Vienna - Plate 17 7/8 x 12 3/16in (45.4 x 31cm) - Sheet 26 13/16 x 21 1/16in (68.1 x 53.5cm) - Literature: Carpenter 33 // Jim Dine’s 'Albertina Venus' is a 1989 etching and aquatint on Zerkall White paper, depicting a classical, headless Venus statue rendered with expressive texture and vivid colors. The statue's rugged form, painted in bold shades of red, contrasts with the deep blue sky and dark grass at the base. Dine’s interpretation of the ancient Venus embraces both its timeless beauty and its worn, fractured appearance, evoking a sense of history and erosion. The etching showcases his mastery of combining classical themes with contemporary techniques, giving new life to the figure while maintaining a sense of reverence for the past.

What is Neo-Dada?
Neo-Dada is a minor visual and audio art movement with intents similar to those of Dada artwork. While it revives some of Dada's objectives, Neo-Dada emphasizes the importance of the produced artwork rather than the concept behind it. The movement is considered the foundation of Pop Art, Nouveau Réalisme, and Fluxus. Neo-Dada is known for its use of absurdist contrasts, popular imagery, and modern materials, blending high and low culture in a way that challenges traditional artistic conventions.
