Jackson Pollock (Cody, Wyoming, 1912 – New York, 1956) Pollock fut le représentant le plus important et le plus influent de l’expressionnisme abstrait. Il avait étudié auprès du régionaliste Thomas Hart Benton, et était également marié au peintre abstrait Lee Krasner (étudiante de Hans Hofmann). Il comptait parmi ses collègues Aschile Gorky, Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell, et d’autres issus de l’école dite de New York. En 1947, il développa l’action painting ou, en termes moins précis, le dripping. Il s’intéressait à un processus de création et d’expression du moment, impliquant le moins de références possibles à la réalité visuelle. Abandonnant les pinceaux, le chevalet et la palette, il contrôlait lui-même les quantités de peinture qu’il faisait couler ou projetait sur une toile généralement très grande qu’il avait l’habitude d’étaler sur le sol. Bien que son obsession première fût l’expression de sa propre vie intérieure (subconscient) à travers son art, sa vie émotionnelle était sans conteste très instable, son approche du processus créatif et la plupart de ses oeuvres bouleversèrent de façon définitive l’évolution de l’art en Amérique.

Born in 1912, in a small town in Wyoming, Jackson Pollock embodied the American dream as the country found itself confronted with the realities of a modern era replacing the fading nineteenth century.Pollock left home in search of fame and fortune in New York City.Thanks to the Federal Art Project he quickly won acclaim, and after the Second World War became the biggest art celebrity in America.For De Kooning, Pollock was the "icebreaker". For Max Ernst and Masson, Pollock was a fellow member of the European Surrealist movement. And for Motherwell, Pollock was a legitimate candidate for the status of the Master of the American School.During the many upheavals in his life in Nez York in the 1950s and 60s, Pollock lost his bearings - success had simply come too fast and too easily.It was during this period that he turned to alcohol and disintegrated his marriage to Lee Krasner.His life ended like that of 50s film icon James Dean behind the wheel of his Oldsmobile, after a night of drinking.; EPUB; Art & Photography > Art treatments & subjects > Individual artists, art monographs, Parkstone International<
