Press Release

Jim Dine: Muscle and Salt
Antikenmuseum Basel
St. Alban-Graben 5, Basel
June 13 - August 7, 2016
Performance June 13, 7:30pm

Muscle and Salt, a project of Art Basel Parcours organized by Richard Gray Gallery, is an immersive installation that brings together two entwined facets of Jim Dine's artistic practice: sculpture and poetry. Dine’s poetry covers the walls and envelops his roughly hewn, classically inspired sculptures—wooden figures of Hellenistic dancers and a large expressionistic self-portrait head.
