Jackson Pollock, Painting (Silver over black, white, yellow and red), 1948

Jackson Pollock, Painting (Silver over black, white, yellow and red), 1948Painting (Silver over Black, White, Yellow and Red) (1948) is an important early example of Jackson Pollocks drip technique, created during the pivotal moment when he was transitioning from semi figurative compositions to full abstraction. Executed on canvas laid flat on the floor, the work embodies Pollocks radical rethinking of both pictorial space and the act of painting itselfan approach that would soon define Abstract Expressionism. The

angular quality of the painting has been interpreted as a reflection of the artist's emotional state during this time

which creates a sense of unsettling strangeness and disorientation
