December 2011
In the Castello,
17 December – March 2012
The subject of this exhibit for both adults
and children, is Pinocchio, a special passion of the
internationally-famous American artist, Jim Dine.
In the early 1960’s Dine was one of the
pioneers of “happenings” – exhibitions in which the public also
participated. Born in Cincinnati in 1935, Jim moved from
expressionism towards Pop Art, and then moved again to follow a
more personal form of self-expression. He is especially famous
for his highly-prized lithographs |
