	Jackson Pollock - MSN Encarta
		Rapid and seemingly impulsive execution like Pollock’s became a hallmark of abstract expressionism, a movement that emphasized the spontaneous gestures of the artist.
		The surrealism movement was another significant influence upon Pollock, whose ideas about the relevance of the unconscious to artistic creativity coincided with his own experience.
		Pollock reinforced this dynamism with compositions that emphasized all parts of the canvas equally and had no visual center of attention.

		Pollock was able to take on a larger studio building and there produced the series of 6 paintings of 1950 for which he is most renowned.

	Jackson Pollock - Blue Poles: Number 11 1952
		Pollock believed that his abandonment of traditional painting tools (he preferred to use sticks, cooking basters or pour directly from the paint can) and the paintings he produced reflected the realms of unconscious experience but also responded to contemporary life.
		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 Jackson Pollock’s untimely death, and the almost mystical intrigue of his abstract paintings, have served to emphasise both the ‘romance’ and ‘heroism’ of the artist’s public persona, Pollock’s achievements as a painter cannot be overshadowed.

	The limitations of Ed Harris's Pollock
		Pollock, directed by actor Ed Harris, treats the last 15 years of American painter Jackson Pollock's life, from his encounter with fellow painter Lee Krasner (whom he was to marry) in New York City in 1941 until his death in an automobile accident on Long Island in 1956 at the age of 44.
		Pollock is Harris's first effort at directing a film, after performing in nearly 50 over the past two decades, and he has accomplished the work in an intelligent and straightforward manner.
		Pollock always insisted, as did a number of the New York painters, that his work was not a product of accident, although it came from the unconscious, and that it was not about nothing.

	Pollock. A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review
		Pollock's need for approval bordered on the psychopathic and yet his even deeper need to create art that had no hint of the lie about it, drove him to make art that had never been made before and was certainly fair game for ridicule and abuse.
		But Pollock's toughest critic was himself and he knew that only he knew what was pure and true and real as far as his own work was concerned.

		The film is "Pollock," a look at the life of abstract painter Jackson Pollock, a man whose emotional state was as bizarre and unpredictable as his paintings.
		Unlike some other abstract artists however, Pollock never looked at abstract painting as a mockery to see how far you could go to fool people into elevating it beyond what it actually is. To Pollock, painting was liberating himself of his own demons.
		"Pollock" may not be a film for everyone, but it is an excellent study in human psychology, as well as a nice excursion into modern arts that always remains tangible.

		As it is, it's so respectful of Pollock that it's not quite worthy of the bastard he sometimes was.
		"Pollock" covers everything from the painter's early days in Greenwich Village circa 1941, where his troubled partnership with Krasner began, to the years he spent in his studio at his home in East Hampton, Long Island, where his earlier cubist influences flowered into a style that was completely his own.
		Harris puts plenty of blood and soul into his portrayal of Pollock, revealing layers of complexity to the man that make perfect sense, given the way so many of his paintings are resolutely complete works of art that nonetheless feel like half-resolved conflicts.

	Harris shines -- and makes his point -- in 'Pollock' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The film picks up Pollock's life in the early '40s, while America is at war and he's a 4-F (for mental instability) Greenwich Village artist dabbling unsuccessfully in cubism and surrealism, and struggling with alcoholism and the challenge of finding his own personal artistic vision and style.
		Moreover, it economically communicates exactly what Pollock was trying to accomplish as an artist and exactly what abstract expressionism is -- while leaving room for a skeptic to question its validity and, indeed, question the whole direction of modern art.
		But Harris is somehow even more believable -- and impressive as an actor -- in Pollock's less malicious moments, when he's struggling with some irresolvable artistic problem, or bouncing around one of his mural-size canvases flinging paint in a dance of exhilarated inspiration, or just feeling frustrated and neglected.
