'''Jackson Pollock''' (1912-1956) was an American [[painter]]. He was among the most prominent of the New York School, more commonly referred to as the [[Abstract Expressionist]]s. His major innovation was to paint unstretched canvas rolled out on the floor, working from all sides of the picture plane, pouring and throwing paint to create a line that re-encompasses itself over and over again without generating a positive and negative form. His work marked a watershed in American art history.
