Jackson Pollock
Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) was an American abstract artist and a leading figure in the action painting movement. He dripped and splattered paint onto canvases laid flat on the floor, creating dynamic, intricate patterns. His unique technique involved moving his body around the canvas, allowing gravity to guide the paint into complex formations. This process-oriented approach led to large-scale, highly textured artworks that explored the physical act of painting itself.
