Gallery label text, 2006:
This is one of three wallsize paintings that Pollock realized in swift succession in the summer and autumn of 1950. In 1947, Pollock began laying canvas on the floor and pouring, dribbling, and flicking enamel paint onto the surface, sometimes straight from the can, or with sticks and stiffened brushes. The density of interlacing liquid threads of paint is balanced and offset by puddles of muted colors and by allover spattering. The pictorial result of this tension is a landmark in the history of Abstract Expressionism.
Publication excerpt from The Museum of Modern Art, MoMA Highlights, New York: The Museum of Modern Art, revised 2004, originally published 1999, p. 194:
One is a masterpiece of the "drip," or pouring, technique, the radical method that Pollock contributed to Abstract Expressionism. Moving around an expanse of canvas laid on the floor, Pollock would fling and pour ropes of paint across the surface. One is among the largest of his works that bear evidence of these dynamic gestures. The canvas pulses with energy: strings and skeins of enamel, some matte, some glossy, weave and run, an intricate web of tans, blues, and grays lashed through with black and white. The way the paint lies on the canvas can suggest speed and force, and the image as a whole is dense and lushyet its details have a lacelike filigree, a delicacy, a lyricism.
The Surrealists' embrace of accident as a way to bypass the conscious mind sparked Pollock's experiments with the chance effects of gravity and momentum on falling paint. Yet although works like One have neither a single point of focus nor any obvious repetition or pattern, they sustain a sense of underlying order. This and the physicality of Pollock's method have led to comparisons of his process with choreography, as if the works were the traces of a dance. Some see in paintings like One the nervous intensity of the modern city, others the primal rhythms of nature.
New York School. A loose association of vanguard artists working in New York City during the 1940s and ’50s. At the center of the New York School were artists like Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko, who were associated with Abstract Expressionism and helped establish a uniquely American avant-garde and propel New York City to eclipse Paris as the center of the art world. These artists created stylistically diverse, often monumental paintings that introduced bold innovations in form and content and reflected a desire to embrace spontaneity and individual expression. The New York School also encompasses the poets, filmmakers, composers, and photographers such as Aaron Siskind who formed close relationships, collaborated, and shared inspiration with New York School painters. www.artsy.net/gene/new-york-school

A still frame of a new digital painting composed using action movie gun fights. Colorful forms from bursts of gun fire and smoke are extracted using custom software and are layered over time to form abstract expressionist paintings. This composition was made from the movie Leon: The Professional.
