Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jackson Pollock's masterpiece, Blue poles 1952, has become an Australian icon and a key part of this country's cultural history. For some, its controversial purchase by the National Gallery in 1973 signalled Australia's economic and cultural dependence on the United States, while for others it showed that Australia was renegotiating its traditional ties and allegiances to Britain. This publication situates Blue poles in the broader development of Pollock's career. Featuring paintings, drawings and prints produced from 1933 to 1952, it reveals Pollock's interest in Mexican mural painting, French Surrealism and Native American art. Essays look at the artist's life, at Blue poles' first exhibition in New York in 1952, and its later reception in the US and Australia, from the 1970s to the present.

Book excerpt: Potent, haunting and lyrical, Night Blue is a debut novel like no other, a narrative largely told in the voice of the painting Blue Poles. It is a truly original and absorbing approach to revisiting Jackson Pollock and his wife Lee Krasner as artists and people, as well as a realigning our ideas around the cultural legacy of Whitlam's purchase of Blue Poles in 1973. It is also the story of Alyssa, and a contemporary relationship, in which Angela O'Keeffe immerses us in the essential power of art to change our personal lives and, by turns, a nation. Moving between New York and Australia with fluid ease, Night Blue is intimate and tender, yet surprisingly dramatic. It is a glorious exploration of how art must never be undervalued. 'Intimate, sublime, this work shines.'Favel Parrett, author of Past the Shallows and There Was Still Love 'Intelligent and poignant, Night Blue traverses the boundaries between language and art in a delicious tour de force. I found it impossible to put down.' Mette Jakobsen, author of What the Light Hides and The Vanishing Act 'Miraculous ? O'Keeffe gets under the skin of a painting we all thought we knew, giving it agency and voice, releasing a spirit that is by turns dreamlike, tender and ruthlessly true.'Michael Fitzgerald, author of The Pacific Room and Pieta

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jackson Pollock's (1912–1956) first large-scale painting, Mural, in many ways represents the birth of Pollock, the legend. The controversial artist’s creation of this painting has been recounted in dozens of books and dramatized in the Oscar-winning film Pollock. Rumors—such as it was painted in one alcohol-fueled night and at first didn’t fit the intended space—abound. But never in doubt was that the creation of the painting was pivotal, not only for Pollock but for the Abstract Expressionists who would follow his radical conception of art —“no limits, just edges.” Mural, painted in 1943, was Pollock’s first major commission. It was made for the entrance hall of the Manhattan duplex of Peggy Guggenheim, who donated it to the University of Iowa in the 1950s where it stayed until its 2012 arrival for conservation and study at the Getty Center. This book unveils the findings of that examination, providing a more complete picture of Pollock’s process than ever before. It includes an essay by eminent Pollock scholar Ellen Landau and an introduction by comedian Steve Martin. It accompanies an exhibition of the painting on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from March 11 through June 1, 2014.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This slim, but richly illustrated, biography of Jackson Pollock has stood the test of time since its first publication in 1959. Still a sound, but laudatory, study of all of Pollock’s periods; which are weighed and appreciated in chronological order. Frank O’Hara was a well-known and universally respected poet who was an integral part of the New York artistic scene until his death in 1966.
