This one has always fascinated me.
I see so many things in this. I could stare at it for hours.
I just can't wait to see this again Aug. 26! In Iowa City @ the UI Stanley Museum of art.
Re; The industrial house paints. If one looks at his 'Autumn Rhythm' picture, one can see a pale dull ochre like brown as one of the colours. However in 1950 this picture was also used as a back drop in Vogue Fashion Magazine. Here the colour is revealed, despite the age of the those magazines, to be a low croma warm fleshy pink. The colour of the printing ink has proved more permanent (helped perhaps by being is a closed unexposed format) than the paint itself.
The unprimed canvas has also changed over the years from it's fresh cotton cream colour to a pale beige. This has caused the white paint to stand out more than it did originally. Still a beautiful work of art, but not as the artist probably intended.
ambitious editing at the start! like the idea.
the thing i love about this painting is that i see so many faces and things in it ! outstanding ! pollock has inspired me so much to paint
drugs will do that to
@@sirbantzalot lol
nothing more inspiring than getting rich for simply splattering paint on a canvas one afternoon while drunk
I love how contemporary art starts a conversation, not everyone agrees on which particular piece actually is art but nearly everyone has an appreciation for art. Jackson Pollack's works are loved or hated , it really doesn't matter bc his works reinvigorated ordinary people's engagement with contemporary art.
I like to see his work
Instant process instant impact🖌️= Real art,
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
not in my opinion but hey if you think paint splatters are meaningful then you are correct
Love the colour and the energy ,seeing it up close ,has changed my mind ,it’s a beautiful thing in itself.jack the dripper .
I'm sure Pollack painted this with the canvas on the ground. The canvas was taller than him and there are no drip marks. Breathe taking painting.🙂👍🎨
I think if Pollock was around, he'd say "leave it alone, let it age"
@Pete's Guitar Lessons TV Yeah but It's Pollock, I'm pretty sure he's the type of artist to not even care if the painting isn't even properly framed ..
@Pete's Guitar Lessons TV Besides the point ? The original comment was about what Pollock would think ? and no we should throw them in a pile and then throw a match and I bet even Pollock would agree we made a better masterpiece

Jackson Pollack's art looks cool, and I very much doubt any of his critics could/would do the same thing. That is what so many of these "I could do that" people miss. Why didn't you then?
1972 A L ECOLE DES BEAUX ARTS JAI PEIGNE COMME L ARTISTE PEINTRE JAKSON POLLOK L ARTISTE .
Yes...the style seem like pollock, i know him....adam moulanna " the black crow "....
Trying to change ice cream into something eternal 💢😁🌞
It reminds me so much of pop art and graffiti.
Pollock is back today as Aelita Andre.
who is that
@@RaeZoladawn777 Aelita Andre is a young girl from Australia who uses a combination of pouring techniques and pollock-like drip techniques to create her abstract compositions... quite talented for a child...
Sorry English isn't my mother tongue - so what's so particular on this painting?
Mark Bee there is the game of subject, composition, style, medium, formed impasto, blah blah... nobody had moved paint like Polluck, his style overruled his sense of form in representation... he mastered form with no representation. Genius artist but troubled individual... I feel like abstract artists have more inner demons
One has to remember that the Abstract Expressionists were working during and after World War II. The world was in great turmoil and there was the fear that the world was coming to an end. So the Ab Ex painters felt that the whole issue of painting was over, that one couldn't just sit and paint flowers and landscapes and portraits. They painted as if painting had never been done before, expressing themselves with color, form, and the very act of painting itself. The "inner demons" were actually everywhere to be found in the '40's and '50's. After the great economic boom of the 1950's it was only natural that Ab Ex painting would be shunted aside by commercialized and deliberately superficial Pop Art. In short, all art is a reflection of it's time.
It was made in América.
Tom Furgas. Yes, the Abstract Expressionists needed to convey their feelings using the medium of paint. The pity is that they had no artistic talent and hence the daub that resulted.
So, do you like art?
painted in one night!??? he must've drank a lot that night....an exhausting project!
As it really clearly states in the video, the legend is NOT true.
Complete and utter garbage. I used to work at a hardware store, who wants to buy a splattered paint shaker?
Not one of his masterpiece .... it’s like one night stand
I'm James Park's ex girlfriend
GTFO
it,s so boringggggg!
5 year old can draw that
Pollock would be dying of laughter listening to all these ridiculous theorists about his smear of paint lol ...
The inspiration of "wild style" graffiti .
Waooo very beautiful painting
I've had the pleasure of seeing "Mural" at the National Gallery. Just incredible to see it in person. The Getty conservation staff did a beyond remarkable job.
yes I bet it is. I am always amazed to see art in person and how the splendour is never captured in a book or photo of the work. I'm sure Mural would be spectaculor to see in person
I had the pleasure of seeing "Mural" in the permanent collection of my hometown museum at the University of Iowa.
I saw it at the MoMA retrospective in 1998.
I worked with these guys for 17 years many familar face's God Bless them mmm
This mural reminds me of home and childhood. I used to live near the museum where it's usually on display in Iowa. I strongly prefer traditional art, but this painting always impressed me. It is quite beautiful in person, and that was before the restoration. It is a lovely mesh of surrealism with action painting.
I imagine Jackson Pollock watching this video and ... peeing in his pants.
A W E S O M E ! wonderful video !!!
Very interesting and informative love his paintings
I wonder if reproductions of the full-size copy is available for sale?
Who got to keep the copy?
Just so awesome....Great Vid !!
I love Art.
I know the new pollock artist was born in indonesia....his name is...mr.adam " the black crow" moulanna
awesome
beautiful
Original lines were the right choice for the stretcher. the crooked shape gives the painting yet another dimension.
I can stare at this for hours.
I could not believe my eyes that it is now in my city. I saw it recently.
I've been to the Guggenheim. Enjoyed it so very much.
I see eyes.
.......La Genialidad de Jackson Pollock...........................
I think if Pollock was still around he would be wondering, why are scientists trying to replicate my random act of "Art"?
I kind of like the idea Pollock was probably drinking and smoking while doing this, possibly sneezing and caughing at it... And now decades later people in lab suits use hi-tec to clean this up...
Last name is actually Russian
His use of random house paint intrigues me...LOL
When I started painting huge canvases, I used house paint because it was so much cheaper than acrylic and gave a much more textured finish.
Eric Dickerson housepaint isn’t archival. It’s a horrible, cheap thing for him to have done that evidences his lack of craftsmanship.
The sagging canvas, the cheap choice of stretchers... imagine if he had been a craftsman, instead of an unsteady drunk who apparently didn’t care about the longevity of his work for purchasers
And all that an artist should worry about is to work on archival materials and selling work right? haha
Needs must. And maybe he liked it.
I don't blame the artist. I blame the idiots who bought his work.
As to the restoring of the paint, how would anyone know if you didn’t quite get it perfect? But I imagine the real difficulty is finding 1950’s house paint.
Very interesting. I wish there'd been more about Pollock's technique and paint layers, especially around the issue of how long the picture took to paint...
I Know pollocks work quite well and I don't think that he would have been bothered about a little bit of the edge of the canvas showing.
Truth to materials and all that
Ценность? Консервация? Все условно.. см., например, момент, когда полотно просто лапают - 2:07
I don’t get it. Splashing, sloshing, throwing, brooming, etc. It does nothing for me.
If he used fast-drying enamel, it could have been done in one night. It sets up much like acrylic.
Pollok, per me è il pittore dell,apocalisse, il suo, il nostro. Quel modo di sfiancarsi come un cavallo impazzito che si accascia sfinito sull'orlo di un burrone . E ti lascia un'immagine terribilmente bellissima di vita. Niente è così vitale eppure straordinariamente morente come in questo pittore . Capolavori ..sempre.
La pittura del secolo scorso ha sempre il suo fascino
And at 2:08 there's a man with his hand clearly clamped on to the canvas. Well done...
fascinating insight, thanks for sharing!
Atroce !!! Plus il copie mal Gilles Mathieu....
The magic of art - you say it and magic happens - well not for all - those with eyes to see will turn away - and those blinded by words will agree - oh yes great art - no just a great random mess of colors and lines and forms - decoration for big walls - walls to divide and hide behind and in that we are the best.
Jack the ripper
5:15 ummm... that's not how a pollock is done 🤣🤣🤣
My pavorite artis
The people doing this conservation are very annoying to me. The seem to be spirits at the very opposite end of the spectrum from art and artists. I get the feeling of vultures circling around over something they really don't understand and concentrating on the least important aspects of the work.
Does anyone know the song playing in the beginning?!
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 in our 💞hearts
🌱🙏
Wait I wrote a stupid comment too early! Did I just see scientists trying to figure out how he splashed paint on a canvas?😂
You're right, in a way. Anyone can splatter paint, but very few can make a large rectangle look attractive with that method. Even fewer can make a composition of pure color that millions of humans would like to look at for centuries to come, devoid of any recognizable subject matter. If you look at the overall whole of the mural, you can sit back and your eye glides over the entire expanse without ever stopping. That's incredibly difficult to do. Try it if you don't believe me. Splash painting is a great method for large scale art. It's dramatic, really fun to do, and actually takes skill to direct randomness into a cohesive result. I don't understand why people can't grasp how amazing it is to try and put a harness on chaos. Cowboys laud a guy that can stay on top of a bull at a rodeo for longer than 8 seconds. It's like successfully herding cats and making a product for the ages in the process.
In part it is to figure out how it was done because the paint has the texture of splashed paint, but the pattern of how the splashes looked was extremely weird. Too weird to just be normal paint on a normal brush flung at a canvas.
They realized that it was industrial quality oil house paint with extra oil added through a chemical analysis.
But without throwing types of paint at a canvas they'd never be able to rightfully say 'this is how he did it.'
Now they know. You add enough oil to house paint and throw it at a canvas it gets all squiggly as it lands.
At the end I could see the bow of the new frame at the top. Now it looks like a hanging tapestry not a painting.
Who is my grandmother.
Pollock's bukkake painting technique
Listen up guys. This painting you are handling is a bazillion dollar painting, worth more than ALL your lives put together a bazillion times over, so look at it with soft eyes and turn your head away to breath.
no IQ for people who see no meanings in these images...
@Philip Gomez do you expect from me to give you art lessons? Especially on Pollock's art! What is your point, don't evade the question...
@Philip Gomez you didn't answer the question,so I will repeat it..,what's your point??
@Philip Gomez Art is about the feelling , the sense ,what is the impression you get from the painting. What motivates you to think , to feel? The artist doesn’t come to say “this is it” .It is what resonates between you and the painting. So someone has to feel and think about how he is related to that painting.
@Philip Gomez Nobody express himself here as an artist but as a layman. Anyone can search and read books, the internet and wiki. Anyone can do this. What is the beauty here is that people express their insight as a layman.
Does it look good, evoke emotions or make me think. No.
I do not see anything in his work. Just lines, meaningless lines. Save the space for other painters.
maybe thats the point of his work.....not to see anything. I don't think that but to say something that is beautiful and wonderful as many people do and to say it is meaningless is silly imo. Life in the end can be meaningless so not everything has to have a meaning.
You're not supposed to see anything. It's an abstract expressionist piece. Think of it as a visualization of feelings.
I think you mean non-representative, not meaningless. Would you rather have an Alma-Tadema hanging in his place? Wouldn't make much sense, would it? Pollock made that space. It can't be filled by another painting. I know it's not beautiful in *that* way, but please take a step back before you say things like that. There's tons of free to read information online, and it might just turn out to be really interesting. The more you understand, the more you see in those lines. Which is beautiful.
you are the boring thing duude
It’s like music without lyrics
Who’s paying for these people to analyze a child’s fingerprinting. This is sad.
You do know that comments like yours are part of the artwork, right?
Waste of time- joke! There are so many old paintings specially in victorian era that needed restoration. This painting feels like splatters of paints.
