 International Paintings and Sculpture | Blue poles: Number 11, 1952   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Blue poles was first exhibited at Pollock's solo show at Sidney Janis Gallery in 1952 ('Jackson Pollock, 10-29 November 1952) where it was titled Number 11, 1952.
The poles are an unusually definite form in the 'all-over' configuration of Pollock's poured paintings and various figurative connotations have been attributed to them — from totems to the swaying masts of tall ships.
The poles are laced into the composition with fine dripped skeins of white, fl and blue paint., In this final operation Pollock used brushes and rags as well as poured paint.

 Jackson Pollock put to music - with just a touch of the blues - smh.com.au
Blue Poles, writes composer Andrew Ford, is a painting that makes him want to 'play it'.
And because the poles are neither straight nor vertical, but jagged and evidently about to topple forwards, they contribute to the painting's internal momentum.
Each time a "pole" approaches, the players regroup, but the chords that form these musical poles are never quite synchronised either.

 Jackson Pollock - Blue Poles: Number 11 1952
Blue Poles is for Pollock an ambitious transitional work where not only colour, but the artist’s handling of composition, mark a conscious move away from previous work.
Pollock uses the prominent slashes of Blue Poles to reintroduce the conventional notion of figure and ground into his work, but without making any concession to traditional concepts of perspective.
While continuing to produce monumental paintings such as Blue Poles during the early 1950s, Pollock became increasingly despondent about his work and by 1956, the year of his death, had not painted for more than twelve months.

 Famed sculptor Sze unveils Sidney-Pacific work - MIT News Office
In designing "Blue Poles," Sze was inspired by her childhood memories of fire escapes on apartment buildings near her home, she said.
Those rickety iron or wooden structures, used both as places to relax and as escape routes, are rarely found on new buildings; "Blue Poles" reconnects the Sidney- Pacific residence to its urban past and to the myriad ways people adapt to crowding, anonymity and summer heat.
Her new work, 'Blue Poles,' can be seen behind her, running up the side of the building.

 Jackson Pollock – Before Blue Poles
Crucial to understanding the 1952 painting Blue Poles is the knowledge that it is a late work in which Pollock re-assessed his drip style in the classic pictures of 1947–50.
In many respects, the approach in Blue Poles is similar to his earlier works such as One: Number 31, 1950; the painting is built up with successive layers of dripped and poured paint evenly dispersed across the canvas.
As the exhibition Jackson Pollock’s Blue Poles demonstrates, this departure was both a reprise of a recurrent motif in Pollock’s work and a self-conscious re-evaluation of the painting technique for which he was famous.

 Brain-Juice.Com | Blue Poles: Number 11, 1952
A return to the scale employed in 1950, Blue Poles is a striking example of Abstract Expressionism.
The work is a furious explosion of intricate webs of yellow, orange, silver, white, and fl, punctuated by a series of vertical poles that bear a resemblance to trees measuring 6 feet 10 7/8 inches by 15 feet 11 5/8 inches.
The blue poles were added with the aid of six feet of two-by-four wood.

 Step-By-Step Tensegrity Tower part 2 on Ropes and Poles pioneering blog
There are 3 sets of cables- connecting the bottoms of poles together (green), connecting the tops of poles together (blue), and connecting bottoms to tops (red).
Every end of every pole has 3 cables tied to it- one that is connecting it to the opposite end of another pole and 2 that are both connecting it to the same end of other poles.
To build one of these units, the simplest thing to do is to lay the 4 poles out flat, and then tie 3 of them together, measuring carefully (more about measurements in the next post), leaving the 4th set of connections to be tied later.

 Important Works by Jackson Pollock
Blue Poles was first showcased at Pollock's solo exhibition at the Sidney Janis Gallery in November of 1952, where it was titled Number 11, 1952.
It is clear from the inscription in the bottom left-hand corner of the painting that Pollock initially dated it '53', and then changed the '3' to a '2'.
When he next worked on the painting, having decided to paint in the blue poles, it can be seen how the blue paint rides over the thick ridges of the earlier paint layers without any blurring, an indication they were quite dry by that time.

Whatever reading, Blue Poles can be considered allegorical: for some it represents the ‘money and the waste’ of the Whitlam era… it is either a symbol of freedom or the abuse of freedom, depending on ones’ political stance or view of contemporary art.

So to start with, the blue pole is on the "bottom," the green pole is above the blue pole, and the fish is directly below the red pole (that is between the green pole and the red pole.) The red pole is on top of everything, as far as the stacking order goes.
Because of the stacking order of the poles, the fish seems to swim in front of the blue pole, behind the red (middle) pole, and in front of the green pole.
To enable the fish to swim in front of a pole on the way out and swim behind it on the way back, you need to change the stacking order of the layers each time the fish changes direction.
