One of the most enjoyable exhibitions that I have ever created. The Getty conservation experts worked miracles, while Philip Rylands and the Peggy Guggenheim Venice's staff made for a dream team.
The creative process that accompanies Compmaturism, based on intuition and expression, is completely in line with the neurovisual needs of contemporary art audiences. Compmaturism invites the viewer to an endless adventure in which nothing is obvious, and it is fascinating in this new direction of art.
I have never seen 'Mural' outside of an all Jackson Pollock coffee table book that is in a very well done book on extremely heavy stock glossy paper. Seeing it in this book gives the authentic 'Mural' little justice. Before viewing it in this coffee table book, it was printed on a double folded composition which gave it a good effort. I paid $130 for it out of a used book store for an 8 out of 10, condition wise. Brand new out of a store, it easily could have sold for $300. As a life long painter, I studied the painting in the book for about 50 minutes. The question to myself, "Could I paint something of this caliber given unlimited time, a large enough space and a helper to mix paints and clean up, etc.?" I came to the answer "no" quite quickly. Then I thought my question to myself deserved some merit in the "why not?"category. I came up with two answers that don't answer the question sufficiently, as if we knew the answer, we all could paint that well. In the end analysis, there was something Pollock had that only the best of masters were born with.. You could say, "yeah, talent." That isn't it. The only way I can think of a reasonable comparison is Beethoven was completely deaf by age 45. He was still composing what is described as darker music while being completely deaf. That is the one thing that sets him apart from every other composer that has ever lived. 'My 'Mural' would be similar in that if you studied it closely, my effort would look sloppy iif put next to Pollock's original. The average person might think it was painted perfectly. Anyone who has painted and studied painting would pick out the Pollock within a few minutes..., maybe sooner. Brilliant Pollock, maybe my favourite of his.
Art is so subjective, thats why i try to please myself, ive made 2 or 3 that i absolutely love,! Brilliant masterpiece,s, except only my friends know .
In the movie Pollock, directed and acted by Ed Harris, and Marcia Gay Harden plays his wife Lee Krasner, it's well depicted to show the size of this painting. I think it's about 20 feet long, or possibly more.
Nevertheless this is the ultimate point of artistry Jackson pollock has been on my mind great artusts make us comprehend rhat in life we learn so much when we see such great art exhibits and we go into rhe soul if the painting and rhe offering that these artists give to the spectatators yes yes it's all about this great artist a league of its own / I salute this great artists 🎉
Wow so cool that you paid such close attention to the film. Maybe he "finished" the piece in a night but made alterations to it over an extended period of time? Often times an artist will go back into a work, like Louise Borgious-- apparently people feared her changing works that had been sold or were on display because she felt she needed to. It could have been made, moved to the party, and then reworked there or moved back. Or she lied lol
So my art history professor signed this documentary, and when I commented on how crazy it is that he did it in one night she said that he did not. She said: "However, while there's a legend that Pollock painted the mural in one night, study of the work made clear that he did NOT. I thought that was clear in this but maybe not. Sometimes it's easy to miss or mistake information one has heard just once." Karla Huebner at Wright State University
@@skibidiboobop Harris’ movie-which I love, especially the mural creation scenes-implies he did it overnight. This documentary shows how X-rays and paint analysis proves it took much longer.
Não conhecia esse pintor magnífico. Depois que um artista da minha cidade viu o meu trabalho, o comparou a Pollack. Fiquei intrigado, quis conhecê-lo. Estou maravilhado!
Excellent painting but surely the secret to being a mega successful artist is having a benefactor/collector (in this case Peggy Gugenheim).. When I see these shows about the most famous artists, I can't help think there are better artists out there who were never discovered a la the mathematician Ramanujian..
It is called life, it ain't fair . . . .but folks like G. Richter, A. Kiefer, Twombly, Oldenburg, Nauman, Puryear, and thousands of other very visible prosperous visual artists never had benefactors. They just work hard, get on with it, and don't complain.
@@higgsmerino3925 I agree Higgs.. BUT... Twombly had Larry Gagosian selling and promoting him and some of the others had similar people promoting/representing them... I'm not complaining..just making an observation..
artists can only achieve a patrons support if they display massive talent, like a natural selection process its not that he was great because he had a patron but the reverse
It is not like Peggy Guggenheim supported him in any extravagant fashion. Life was still hard for him and Lee Krasner for many, many years. Life magazine may have a little to do with his fame. And fame was not something he seemed to want. Or so I have learned so far. Much more to learn but he painted because he needed to not because he craved fame. He had his problems for sure. Not such a great life really.
Se habla mucho de los pintores pero poco se sabe de sus mecenas ojala algún día se les diera crédito ya que si ellos no tendriamos a picasso, dalí, leonora carrington y otros en estos museos, citaré a Sir Edward James.....saludos
No entiendo cómo pudieron haber contratado a esa persona que colocó ese barniz que dañó las tonalidades de la tela de Pollock. Yo creo que esos especialistas deben ser gente muy calificada y no simples maestros de pacotilla. Aquel cometido fue un gravísimo error de la persona del museo, esa funcionaria que lo contrató. Al final, y felizmente, la magnífica obra de Pollock salió airosa, gracias a técnicos especialistas en restauraciones, tal como debió haber sido desde el comienzo con las contrataciones para tratar una obra de la envergadura, así como el "Mural" de Jackson Pollock.
If they only knew how destructive this work of "restoration" is to the essential aesthetic of Pollock's work. It should have been hung "as is" - with all of the imperfections in the stretcher, faded varnish, and generally sloppy appearance. Pollock didn't really care about these things - and to groom these works in this manner, is to disrespect the nihilistic / existential tendencies of the age, and in particular, Pollock's own psychological pathologies, which are so much an essential part of his life and work - and which he, in a kind of heroic manner, embraced.
But the varnish removed wasnt added by Pollock, but instead, an ill advised attempt at preservation. Plus, I like the intensive lens the Getty gave it, something Guggenheim meant all along.
No mention of Guggenheim taking advantage of Jackson as she did.Jackson’s parents where from Tingly Iowa( fly over country)Population 200 . Guess you could say the painting stayed home.
Pollack might be important historically, but the trade-off of brush control for chance (slinging paint) has a limited fascination. Any rhythmic actions can become suggestive. He might have proven that fact, but relinquished most control over what would be suggested. I much prefer his early pre-drip paintings.

Dead end is right. You know what gives me chills? That the money spent on these garbage paintings would probably have been enough to feed and clothe every homeless person in New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco

One thing is certain, cancer did invent god.
Abstract Expressionism was a cultural weapon to fight Soviet Realism. Funds were set up under millionaire’s names, etc., and these artists you now muse over were tapped on the shoulder. Nothing genius.

@John Bryan ok, lol Im well aware of that and your not wrong but I was simply making the reference to the two looking alike in my opinion and the contrast of careers , so what's your point ?
nah, pollock was an alcoholic who spattered paint. which is fine and dandy...some talent and courage to share with the public. but to immortalize him as a genius is annoying
He made a very good living for himself despite having the technical ability of a 3 year old. You have to admire that. On the down side he ushered in the artistic desert that is contemporary art.
The New Deal was pre-WWII. Pollock became famous at the end of the 1940s. Not sure how the New Deal made him famous. The fucking Peggy theory is better.
Steve Martin, who was a good comedian and banjo player, is talking shit...was all brush painting irrelevant after the first brush painting...JP is in fact painting without contacting the surface and he does it damn well.

You do not understand so much of painting and art and genius if you genuinely hold the above beliefs. To say it is not your taste/style is one thing; to condemn Pollock as over-rated - well, that's up to you. But you are arrogant in your overstated, black and white criticism of the work and you seem to think you are the sole arbiter of what is 'art' or a work of art.

Pollock doesn't own drip painting and his works aren't worth much at all artistically speaking. all of these paintings have been artificially inflated regardless of how good the art actually is.. the prices on art pieces does not represent the art anymore but the whims of the rich and respected. that's why fakes have been bought and sold at higher prices... the art isn't as special as everyone would like to be convinced, there essentially is no special reason these are so highly valued except for corruption in the art business.
@@tylerpodomik3272 you know nothing, and that's unacceptable. how your parents thought that you were in any way ready for connection to the internet let alone the outside world is beyond reason. your existence is an insult to life itself. you would literally stare at a spilled drink if someone told you it was art.
why is there always such terrible music in art videos? It really doesn't have to be such way. particularly in the period of abstract expressionism, there is plenty of equivalent music around.

Enjoyed this, being a artist
It'd be nice it someone would do a doc on Janet Sobel for her drip art. Peggy Guggenheim did a show for her in 1946.

Jazz has structure and emotional resonance people can understand. Drops and drips are indeed a dead end.
Well said,
No, he wasn't. He was a balding, overgrown baby. Who painted as though his brain hadn't fully developed.

well well well...
What artist told Jack to make a hole in a can, fill it with paint, put it on a string, and swing it over a canvas?
Probably Marcel Duchamp.
At least it won't be stolen very easily.
Bingo!
I think Pollack must have had rhythm.
Of course he did, S Haney, good observation! Pollack was a drummer first. See Ed Harris' film version of Jackson, and you`ll see.
rythm....you got it right. stay in the zone, in the pulse...
i like the Ed Harris movie. He kind of made it himself... an actor with some integrity.
I am actually related to Jackson Pollock.
So is Kevin Bacon.
Pollack might be important historically, but the trade-off of brush control for chance (slinging paint) has a limited fascination. Any rhythmic actions can become suggestive. He might have proven that fact, but relinquished most control over what would be suggested. I much prefer his early pre-drip paintings.

Then scribble deliberately so it would look like something. I do abstract.
Its excelent

It was inevitable that someone would do drip painting. But that doesn't make it less of a bore.
Jackson Pollack became famous by throwing paint at canvas.
No.
For honest artists, fame is not the motivation. Though it may happen.
Did she say ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS? So I suppose it seems not unreasonable to want to see it first .

Para los que lo idolatran y sueñan ser como el, les digo que necesitan marketing, no talento!! Jackson Pollock, la mentira mas grande de la historia del arte!!
You do not understand so much of painting and art and genius if you genuinely hold the above beliefs. To say it is not your taste/style is one thing; to condemn Pollock as over-rated - well, that's up to you. But you are arrogant in your overstated, black and white criticism of the work and you seem to think you are the sole arbiter of what is 'art' or a work of art.

I don't think Edison ever said that.
Pollock doesn't own drip painting and his works aren't worth much at all artistically speaking. all of these paintings have been artificially inflated regardless of how good the art actually is.. the prices on art pieces does not represent the art anymore but the whims of the rich and respected. that's why fakes have been bought and sold at higher prices... the art isn't as special as everyone would like to be convinced, there essentially is no special reason these are so highly valued except for corruption in the art business.
You don’t really know much, but that’s acceptable.
@@tylerpodomik3272 you know nothing, and that's unacceptable. how your parents thought that you were in any way ready for connection to the internet let alone the outside world is beyond reason. your existence is an insult to life itself. you would literally stare at a spilled drink if someone told you it was art.
bless these conservator! this is so tedious and time consuming

artists hate journalists, cos listen to them talking like they knew him and talking his historical narrative. and they didn't know shit.
Why do I want to laugh, even if Steve tries to be serious?
why is there always such terrible music in art videos? It really doesn't have to be such way. particularly in the period of abstract expressionism, there is plenty of equivalent music around.
irrelevant
Its called pastiche when someone imitates another artists style. And it becomes rather boring because its nothing new.

Looks like loads of paint drips. There's no meaning, except what you imply.
Modern Art is good when it matches the sofa. Seen better graffiti.
Mural is not a drip painting. You may be due for an eye exam. The drip paintings came later.
