A concentrated look at one of Americas early Pop artists the film was made during Dines 4year residency in London Actively at work in his studio on several large collages one can clearly see Dines masterful balance of artistic freedom and control as he adds and modifies illusionistic images written words and real life objects to his compositions The artist talks about his connections to literature and about his frequent collaboration with poets he also discusses his own poetry some of which he reads for the camera The parks and streets of London are the setting for Dines frank comments about his voluntary exile in that city On one walk Dine encounters Gilbert and George as they endlessly repeat Underneath the Arches in bronze makeup their earliest performance piece
