Screenprint, etching with aquatint printed in colours and hand-colouring, on Arches paper. Signed, dated and inscribed ‘P/P’ in pencil, a printer's proof aside from the edition of 18. Printed by Jack Shirreff at 107 Workshop, Wiltshire. Literature: Carpenter 19. Running Hammers in a Landscape (1987) by Jim Dine is a vivid and dynamic print combining screenprint, etching, aquatint, and hand-colouring. The composition features a surreal procession of upright hammers, set against an expressive landscape of swirling skies and grassy textures. Each hammer appears animated, almost marching forward, turning a mundane tool into a forceful presence. The energetic marks and layered textures exemplify Dine’s gestural approach to printmaking, while the repetition of the hammer motif—frequently seen in his work—references labor, identity, and personal symbolism. Printed as a printer’s proof outside the edition of 18, this piece showcases Dine’s ability to merge everyday objects with psychological intensity and painterly technique.

What is Performance Art?
Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
