Love the website. I'm not sure how I missed that when it came out. this site shows some of the evolution of Jackson Pollock's work. In it you can see him moving from imitation of the masters of earlier 20th century art to his own unmistakable thing. Clark Terry, a revered jazz trumpet player and teacher famously said "Imitate. Assimilate. Innovate." That same process can be seen here. http://www.all-art.org/art_20th_century/pollock1.html http://www.all-art.org/art_20th_century/pollock1.html
- hodgesrm 6y agoThe site is absolutely delightful. You also get the feeling after having fun for a while that there's much more art in Pollock's canvases than it first appeared. :) edit: fixed typo
- vajrabum 6y agoHere's another website which shows a work that he made after he stopped making the drip paintings he was famous for. http://www.writingfordesigners.com/?p=17930 http://www.writingfordesigners.com/?p=17930
