内容説明

Jackson Pollock is widely considered the most challenging and influential American artist of the twentieth century. In his revolutionary paintings of the late 1940s, he dripped or poured paint into complex webs of interlacing lines, rhythmically punctuated by pools of color. With their allover composition, seemingly total abstraction, and gestural but remarkably controlled handling of paint, these powerful works announced the emergence of Abstract Expressionism. This book accompanies the major Pollock exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1998-99 (and then at the Tate Gallery, London) - America's first full survey of the artist's career since the 1967 retrospective also organized by the Modern. An essay by Kirk Varnedoe explores Pollock's life, the mythology that so quickly grew up around him as the prototypical "action painter, " and the critical interpretations of his legacy. Pepe Karmel's study of Hans Namuth's photographs and films of Pollock at work offers new insight into the genesis of Pollock's paintings. Jackson Pollock includes over 200 color reproductions of paintings, drawings, and prints, including life-sized details and foldouts of major paintings. An illustrated chronology tells the story of the artist's life.

内容説明

This book accompanies the first retrospective exhibition in over 30 years of the most influential American painter of the 20th century. By the late 1940s, Jackson Pollock's "drip technique" had made him one of the central figures of the New York based Abstract Expressionists. Eliminating all recognizable imagery and painterly techniques, Pollock dripped paint from a stick or can, resulting in a web of interlacing lines that created all-over images of richness and complexity. The myth suggests that he worked in a drunken, haphazard fashion; this mythology has now been reassessed. The essay by Varnedoe examines how the legend of Pollock the "action painter" has been constructed. He charts the development of Pollock's aesthetic and situates it within its art and historical context. A second essay, by Pepe Karmel, provides insight into the "drip technique", revealed through an intensive, computer-assisted study of photographs amd films of Pollock at work. Sixty documentary photographs illustrate this essay.
