Pollock's large, bold canvasses revolutionized the world of art just after World War II. More than 100 are reproduced here in full color to capture the brilliance of his palette, and six gatefolds show his vast horizontal works without distortion. 270 illustrations, 120 in full color.
Abstract expressionist painter Jackson Pollock is famous for the highly textured works created through his trademark "drip" technique in which he poured paint from its can directly onto the canvas. This book explores the personal and artistic interrelationship between him and Swiss-born photographer and graphic designer Herbert Matter.
