In 1956, Time magazine referred to Pollock as "Jack the Dripper." His iconic paintings stretch out with the generosity and scale of the landscape of America's West where the artist grew up. The cathartic dribbled paint reflected Pollock's troubled mind. This book traces his career and discusses how his loose, individual style was used as a political weapon in the Cold War, representing America as a free, democratic nation. Illustrations simplify the theory and reveal the hidden meaning behind the mesh of painted lines.
