1961
Jim Dine began making prints very early in his career, and is widely regarded as one of the great painter-printmakers of the twentieth century. Although he worked frequently at U.L.A.E. throughout the 1960s, Dine's earliest print projects were executed at Pratt Graphics Center, which predated Tamarind and U.L.A.E. Ties was a set of five drypoints that exemplify Dine's simple and direct treatment of the process. Both the simplicity of technique and the additions of hand coloring are still typical of Dine's most recent prints.
