Oil on burlap. Hand-signed by the artist, back. Jim Dine’s Cadmium Red Medium (2021) is a striking and expressive oil painting on burlap that embodies his lifelong fascination with the heart motif. The textured, impasto-rich surface pulses with energy, as thick layers of red, brown, white, and hints of blue and orange converge into a raw and dynamic composition. The heart, though central, appears almost eroded or weathered, as if shaped by time and emotion. Dine, a key figure in the Pop Art movement with strong roots in Neo-Expressionism, often uses hearts as a deeply personal symbol, balancing between love, passion, and vulnerability. The heavy brushstrokes and rich materiality in Cadmium Red Medium evoke both intensity and introspection, transforming a familiar motif into an emotionally charged abstraction. This unique work continues Dine’s exploration of form, color, and texture as powerful vehicles for expression.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
