The first thought that comes to mind when you first see the pictures of Jackson Pollock: "This is something inexplicable!" Although true connoisseurs of art know that if an artist can translate the meaning and purpose of the work into understandable words, then this means one of two things: either the artist works for sponsors or he is not a very smart person.
Serious art defies easy interpretation. It is this axiom that applies to the work of Jackson Pollock.
Once the artists found refuge for themselves behind the mysterious vague aura of abstract impressionism, and today it is simply silly to call this trend false art. This is confirmed by a grant received by Jackson Pollock back in 19947.
The first painting exhibited by Pollock at the Peggy Guggenheim Gallery for the general public was The Stenographic Figure, created around 1942.
And the most expensive painting among the works of Jackson Pollock, the canvas "No. 12, 1949", which went from auction, for which an anonymous collector paid in 2004 11,000,655 US dollars.
