American painter, the commanding figure of the Abstract Expressionist movement. <br /><br />He began to study painting in 1929 at the Art Students' League, New York, under the Regionalist painter Thomas Hart Benton. During the 1930s he worked in the manner of the Regionalists, being influenced also by the Mexican muralist painters (Orozco, Rivera, Siqueiros) and by certain aspects of Surrealism. From 1938 to 1942 he worked for the Federal Art Project. By the mid 1940s he was painting in a completely abstract manner, and the `drip and splash' style for which he is best known emerged with some abruptness in 1947. Instead of using the traditional easel he affixed his canvas to the floor or the wall and poured and dripped his paint from a can; instead of using brushes he manipulated it with `sticks, trowels or knives' (to use his own words), sometimes obtaining a heavy impasto by an admixture of `sand, broken glass or other foreign matter'. This manner of Action painting had in common with Surrealist theories of automatism that it was supposed by artists and critics alike to result in a direct expression or revelation of the unconscious moods of the artist..."<br /><br />His paintings are an "impasto by an admixture of a

I have found an interesting thing:<br /><br />Go here:<br />http://www.nasa.gov/mov/121520main_HRI-Movie.mov<br /><br />Stop the movie when the image of the comet appears.<br /><br />What can you see?<br /><br />The face of an animal: you can see his eyes.<br /><br />This animal is hit in his right eye.<br /><br />Wow. Nasa has killed the monster.<br />

You are right, Bigbrain.<br /><br />That movie is faked.

Sciences are only a great simplification of reality.<br /><br />Tu understand reality is enormously difficult. <br /><br />An example? Doctors are not still able to cure a cold.

What does curing the common cold have to do with spaceflight?<br /><br />Your brain is only big when compared to bacteria.

I would've said he has lost the plot, but that implies he had one to start with. You can't lose what you don't have. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

bigbrain---Tu understand reality is enormously difficult. <br /><br />bigbrain,<br /><br />I figured for some time now that you had a BIG problem with reality.

bigbrain---<br />Do they use brakes to slow down their rockets running at 134,000 kilometers per hour? Instead of trying to make joke of me, try to say something intelligent...<br /><br />bigbrain,<br /><br />How about a parachute? After all, you have brought us into the 'Twilight Zone' where anything is possible.<br /><br />

Jackson Pollock is such a crap that is not even able to paint a leg of the lunar module.<br /><br />Why do I say we live in a world full of idiots?<br /><br />Because there are many people ready to spend thousands of dollars for this "impasto by an admixture of a lot of his crap". <br /><br />http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/pollock/fathom-five/pollock.fathom-five.jpg <br />

<i>Blue Poles<br /> <br />The National Gallery’s most valuable foreign work of art is Blue Poles by the American painter Jackson Pollock. The monumental abstract painting was bought by the Labor government in 1973 for A$1.3 million, which at the time was a world-record price for a contemporary American painting. The Australian press immediately vilified the painting as seeming to be the work of drunks and an emblem of the liberal excesses of the Whitlam era. However, the painting was recently loaned to the Museum of Modern Art in New York to feature in a Pollock retrospective as one of the artist’s most significant works; the museum’s chief curator, Kirk Varnedoe, expressed that he would love to have this masterpiece as part of the permanent collection. Though not for sale, if it were to be put on the market today bidding would start at at least A$45 million. </i><br /><br />Is this what you are talking about, geeze, you're so vague sometimes.... <img src="/images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /><br /><br />I remember when this painting was bought, and i have to say, bigbrain, you are right (for once). <br /><br />At $1.3 million AU, at the time i couldn't see the value in it, no appreciation for art i spose. (well i was only 11 at the time)<br /><br />But, what has this got to do with the price of chips in China??<br /><br />Why don't you respond with a decent answer, or will we get more 'crap'?<br />
