Jim Dine Running Hammers in a Landscape color print with upright hammers in green landscape beneath expressive blue sky

Details

Artist

Styles

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 Happening?

A Happening is a term used to describe artistic and theatrical events held by artists in the 1950s and 60s. These events were typically staged in gallery installations or planned environments and often involved audience participation, along with elements like lighting, sounds, and slide projections. Happenings were a precursor to performance art, which later included the active participation of the artists themselves.
