The book, Jackson Pollock - The Early Years , explores Jackson Pollock's early works and the diverse cultural and artistic influences that shaped his style, from his upbringing in the American West to his encounter with Mexican muralists, the European avant-garde, and Jungian psychoanalysis.
The book shows how his art evolved from figurative elements to abstract experimentation, and how these experiences led to his iconic "drip technique." The book is a collaboration with the Pollock-Krasner House and the Musée National Picasso-Paris and accompanies an exhibition in Paris from October 2024 to January 2025.
