Description
Written by one of the world's leading authorities on the artist, this engaging book, now available again, explores in vivid detail the life and career of Jackson Pollock. It reproduces more than 100 paintings in full colour, including six foldouts, together with over 170 illustrations in black and white. A wealth of comparative photographs illustrating paintings by artists whom Pollock admired further explains the work of this complex, tragic and immeasurably influential figure.

Reviews"On the floor I am more at ease, I feel nearer, more a part of the painting, since this way I can walk around in it, work from the four sides and be literally 'in' the painting."
