The She-Wolf, 1943
Oil, gouache, and plaster on canvas, 41 7/8 x 67" (106.4 x 170.2 cm)
Jackson Pollock (American, 1912-1956)
When Pollock painted The She-Wolf he had not yet arrived at his so-called "drip" style, one of the great inventions of Abstract Expressionism. The canvas's traces of multicolored washes and spatters show that a free-form abstraction and an unfettered play of materials were already parts of his process; but in this work and others his focus is a compound of mythology and an iconography of the unconscious. (He was influenced here both by Surrealism and his own Jungian analysis.) Perhaps Pollock's she-wolf is the legendary foster-mother to Romulus and Remus, the founders of ancient Rome. But he himself refused to identify her, saying, "She-Wolf came into existence because I had to paint it. Any attempt on my part to say something about it, to attempt explanation of the inexplicable, could only destroy it."
Drawn in heavy black and white lines, the wolf advances leftward. Her body is overlaid with abstract lines and patches, a thick, unreadable calligraphy that spreads throughout the canvas. These hieroglyphic intimations, along with the somber palette and the conjuring of myth, reflect the climate of a period shadowed by war. Intended to approach ultimate human mysteries, they were to be simultaneously meaningful and unknowable.

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) was founded in 1929 and is often recognized as the most influential museum of modern art in the world. Over the course of the next ten years, the Museum moved three times into progressively larger temporary quarters, and in 1939 finally opened the doors of its midtown home, located on 53rd Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues in midtown.
MoMA's holdings include more than 150,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, architectural models and drawings, and design objects. Highlights of the collection inlcude Vincent Van Gogh's The Starry Night, Salvador Dali's The Persistence of Memory, Pablo Picasso's Les Demoiseels d'Avignon and Three Musicians, Claude Monet's Water Lilies, Piet Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie, Paul Gauguin's The Seed of the Areoi, Henri Matisse's Dance, Marc Chagall's I and the Village, Paul Cezanne's The Bather, Jackson Pollack's Number 31, 1950, and Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans. MoMA also owns approximately 22,000 films and four million film stills, and MoMA's Library and Archives, the premier research facilities of their kind in the world, hold over 300,000 books, artist books, and periodicals, and extensive individual files on more than 70,000 artists.

Acabo de acordarme que la última vez que lloré fue hace cinco años.
¡Cinco años sin derramar una lágrima!
Lo malo es que muchas veces he tenido ganas de llorar. Como ahora. Pero simplemente no puedo, o no sé cómo.
Una persona a la que quiero más que la vida me contó que una vez le dijeron que si no lloraba de vez en cuando, iba a explotar. No sé si ella todavía me quiere, pero si ya no lo hace, supongo que tiene razón en no hacerlo.
Por eso aveces pienso que un día voy a explotar, y toda la tristeza contenida se va convertir en algo más. No sé, voy a matar a alguien o algo así. Quizá me metan a un manicomio después. Es raro pensarlo. Me imagino con una camisa de fuerza, en una pieza acolchada, y no sé porque me produce una sonrisa tonta.
Tal vez estar loco no sea tan malo.

Edvard Munch (1863–1944) was one of the most famous Expressionist Norwegian painters. His style, known as symbolism, which mainly focused on life, love, anxiety, and loneliness played a significant role in the late 20th-century art, especially in German expressionism. The dark color and somber tones, the exaggerated forms, and the contrasting lines in his designs portrayed his psychological state. His most iconic artwork, The Scream (1893), which depicts the agonized face and radical expressions, symbolizes anxiety, one of human's most common psychological conditions.

ODC - In the Style of Aaron Siskind - Abstract Expressionism - Aaron Siskind photographed many images of peeling paint and a few of the grass. I'm taking on the grass thyme. I hope this image is correct.
I must love lying on wet surfaces. I waited for the sunrise and the sunlight to shine through the wet grass before lying on the wet grass.

Minimalism
Though never a self-proclaimed movement, Minimalism refers to painting or sculpture made with an extreme economy of means and reduced to the essentials of geometric abstraction. It applies to sculptural works by such artists as Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, Ellsworth Kelly, John McCracken, Robert Morris, Richard Serra, Tony Smith, and Anne Truitt; to the shaped and striped canvases of Frank Stella; and to paintings by Jo Baer, Ellsworth Kelly, Robert Mangold, Brice Marden, Agnes Martin, and Robert Ryman. Minimalist art is generally characterized by precise, hard-edged, unitary geometric forms; rigid planes of color—usually cool hues or commercially mixed colors, or sometimes just a single color; nonhierarchical, mathematically regular compositions, often based on a grid; the reduction to pure self-referential form, emptied of all external references; and an anonymous surface appearance, without any gestural inflection. As a result of these formal attributes, this art has also been referred to as ABC art, Cool art, Imageless Pop, Literalist art, Object art, and Primary Structure art. Minimalist art shares Pop arts rejection of the artistic subjectivity and heroic gesture of Abstract Expressionism. In Minimal art what is important is the phenomenological basis of the viewers experience, how he or she perceives the internal relationships among the parts of the work and of the parts to the whole, as in the gestalt aspect of Morriss sculpture. The repetition of forms in Minimalist sculpture serves to emphasize the subtle differences in the perception of those forms in space and time as the spectators viewpoint shifts in time and space.
WIT
Firstly - forgive me for choosing this one, but when it came to the crunch, it was the best of my bunch, so I'm going with it. :)
It is a rubbish (trash) skip near the beach entrance, so I see it every day. The skips evolve into many stages og entropy. Some are nice and new like this one - some are really rusty and scraped, but they are always interesting to me. This was simply taken with a polarizing filter, against the sky. By the way, the fluorescent stripes don't come out at all well without the filter!
So here is my offering. It was challenging Steve, but I enjoyed it. :o)
