This exhibition features two main groups of new paintings. The first group is from a series of transportation map paintings, which are constructed from model buses and toy building blocks. Inlaid “superballs” within the blocks indicate routes, such as the cross-town New York City bus line. The second is the documentation of his miniature car, truck, bus and train collection. It includes the paintings of the car stacks standing as bases for tower cranes and automobile billboards. Dickinson’s collection includes the toy vehicles of his childhood as well as the ones he collects as an adult from toy fairs and swap meetings. As he states that the paintings feed the collecting and vice versa, new additions to his collection always provide new inspiration. Also included in the exhibition are a small group of paintings from the “rail yard” series, which depict trains from the artist's collection, ranging from modern Japanese bullet trains to American 19th century pioneer steam locomotives. Also on view will be a small group of wall mounted shipping container and junkyard sculptures made using items sourced from model railway stores.
