What is Jackson Pollock famous for?
• Lee Krasner, Jackson Pollock's wife, changed her name. Her original name is Lenore Krassner.• Pollock's real first name is Paul. Right around the time that he moved to New York to study with Benton in 1930, he decided to drop his first name and use his middle name of Jackson.• The only person to survive Pollock's deadly car accident was his lover, Ruth Kligman.• One of his most famous works is Blue Poles, painted in 1952. It was created with enamel and aluminum paint with glass on a canvas.• The most important element in Pollock's paintings is that of lines. When he first started using the method of pouring and dripping paint onto canvas, it resulted in huge areas covered with complex linear patterns that created image and form.• "Jackson Pollock: Is he the greatest living painter in the United States?" That was the question on the front cover of Life magazine on August 8, 1949.• His first experiment with liquid paint was at the Siquieros workshop in New York, 1936.• The French equivalent of action painting, a form of abstract expressionism associated with Pollock, is Tachisme.• Pollock was nicknamed Jack the Dripper because he literally dripped paint onto his canvas to create unique, intricate pieces.His brother Sanford knew Jackson had a special talent. In 1941, he wrote a letter to their eldest brother Charles about Jackson. He said if Jackson could "hold himself together, his work will become of real significance. His painting is abstract, intense, evocative in quality."• Pollock's paintings differed from before he moved to the Hamptons and right after the move. Before moving to The Springs in East Hampton with his wife, his imagery was congested, the colors were somber, and the overall mood of his paintings was anxious and conflicted.• After the move to the country, the colors were brighter, his compositions were more open, and the imagery reflected a new responsiveness to nature.• His work Blue Poles, 1952 was originally inscribed with a '3' and subsequently painted over with a '2'.• In 1949, Pollock decided to number his paintings, including the year they were created, instead of using descriptive titles. This began with his 1949 solo exhibition at the Betty Parsons Gallery.• Downward arching stretch-marks at the top edge of the canvas are common with Pollock's works. This is because he would often hang them along a beam in his studio; another step in his creation process.Click links below for more info and for some quotes by Pollock himself!~ He would drink himself unconsious frequently...~ He pissed in Peggy Guggenhiems fireplace at a dinner party in front of her guest~ He was a studied with Thomas Hart Benton brieflyNot known any more.But click link below for an example of his early style!
How did handling of Jackson pollack estate by lee krasner affect American modern painting?
Being a Russian Jew, an emigrant family in New York, USA, Lee Krasner had many obstacles, almost all her life. Once she said in an interview with Newsday journalist Amei Wallach 1973: "I happen to be Mrs. Jackson Pollock, and that's a mouthful. The only thing I haven't had against me was being black. I was a woman, Jewish, a widow, a damn good painter, thank you, and a little too independent." She was quite aware of herself as a painter and from her teenage time she pursued this all her life. But meeting Jackson Pollock in 1945 and marrying him, left her almost in the constant shadow of Jackson Pollock, who had a more easygoing lifestyle, one can say. In 1932, she obtained full time work as an artist through the Federeal Art Project. The FAP, more or likely the visual arts branch of the WPA program. Lee Krasner did not mind this work but was quite happy about it. Jackson Pollock on his part was not an exception in this way. He also did his time with WPA. Now, Jackson Pollock did it his way and even after marrying Lee Krasner, probably the only moment in his life he was loving kind, he pursued his own painting style and they were each other competitors as well as each others inspiration. When Jackson Pollock reach his goal or inner spirit and found his style, Lee Krasner still had to face many problems she had been fighting all her life. So, being left as a wife, as a lover for a much more sophisticated women, a pretty one and being left in the shadow of her now past away husband being only 47 years old, she had to wait yet five more years struckle and sickness before she was accepted as the great artist she had become. So one can imagine, she t0ok the obligation as curator of her husband's estate very seriously and also, with some anger towards Ruth Kligmann, whom she never wanted to deal with, even when Ruth Kligmann wanted to have a painting, a lover's gift from Jackson Pollock, accepted as part of Jackson Pollock works. (she wanted to sell it since she was broke, more or the less). But she never got this certified by Lee Krasner. Even after both death and Ruth Kligmann estate to day, last week, the painting was taken from an auction for "further investigation". At her death (Lee Krasner) in 1984, a travelling retrospective of her work was headed for Manhattan's Museum of Modern Art. Lee Krasner died in 1984, age 75, from natural causes. After her death, her (and Jackson Pollock) estate on East Hamptonbecame The Pollock-Krasner House and Studio and a separate organization Pollock-Krasner Foundation was established in 1985, just a year after her death. One can say, this became an institution for both their life and works and the identification and catalogue of his and her works of art, likewise became an institution as well. To day this institution is functioning as a foundation to support artists who are new and pursuing new paths for their arts. So, you can say, that after Lee Krasner`s death the generosity of the Pollosk-Krasner foundation has since 1985 awarded more than 46 million dollars in grants to working artists, not only in the US, but around the world as well. As far as Jackson Pollock paintings are concerned, the high prices he now obtain, the search for forgotten or "not known" paintings of Jackson Pollock somehow is interesting, but as far as the Pollock-Krasner Foundation the chances for finding an unknown painting is limited (and to other experts, not necessary impossible).
