where did Jackson Pollock paint Blue Poles
Dennis, Pollock did do the Blue Poles in his studio in Long Island.
Do you have any idea what were Jackson Pollock’s reason or inspiration in this artwork?
I have always felt that the use of the poles was influenced by having worked on the piece with Barnett Newman. There is a great Pollock biography by Naifeh and Smith. I am sure they discuss it in detail, I just haven’t read that part yet. 🙂
