Label TextOscar Wilde’s story of Dorian Gray has captivated the imagination of audiences since its publication in 1890 and through the subsequent stage and film adaptations. A beautiful and youthful Gray makes a Faustian bargain that in exchange for his soul a painting of him will age and deteriorate and leave the real Gray forever youthful. Jim Dine revisits this tale at the height of the hedonistic 1960s—an updating of a classic for a new generation.Membership
