Who the #$&% Is Jackson Pollock?



Real people/real possibilities vs. The Art Realm.

Money? Fame?
Principle (Horton)?
%*#1?@load of affectation (art dealers)?

See this documentary. You'll laugh. You'll cry.

And Pollock's gotta be rolling in his grave.

B.
Art is weird stuff!
Is slopping buckets of paint onto gigantic canvases art?

Discussions by art historians can be a dialect only they understand. I wonder, sometimes, if I ever "make it", what on earth critics would write!

Some say to let the art speak for itself. I want to explain and explain to make sure the viewer knows I speak for myself!

Thus wordy titles...
