Jim Dine's Looking Toward The Avenue is a bronze sculpture installation located in New York City. It features two large, stylized figures that reflect Dine's fascination with classical forms and personal symbolism. The sculptures stand at the entrance of the 1301 Sixth Avenue, blending traditional and contemporary aesthetics. With expressive surfaces and exaggerated proportions, they convey a sense of timeless humanity, acting as guardians or sentinels to the cultural institution. The work embodies Dine's ongoing exploration of identity, history, and emotion through sculptural form.
