{"product_id":"number-23-jackson-pollock","title":"Number 23 - Jackson Pollock","description":"\u003cp\u003eA monochromatic example of Jackson Pollock's drip technique, featuring a complex web of black enamel lines on a white ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNumber 23, produced in 1948, is a representative example of the drip technique developed by Jackson Pollock during his most productive period. By placing the canvas on the floor, Pollock moved away from the traditional easel, allowing him to apply paint from all sides. This physical engagement with the surface resulted in a web of lines that record the movement of the artist across the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition relies on the interplay between black enamel and white ground. Pollock used sticks, hardened brushes, and even turkey basters to manipulate the viscosity of the paint. The resulting marks vary from thin, taut filaments to thick, pooled drips. There is no central point of focus, as the eye is encouraged to travel across the entire surface. This approach removes the distinction between figure and ground, creating a field of activity that occupies the viewer's visual field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePollock's work from this era is often associated with the shift of the art world centre from Paris to New York. His process prioritised the act of creation itself, treating the canvas as an arena for physical expression. The lack of traditional perspective or representational subject matter forces the viewer to engage with the material qualities of the paint and the rhythm of the lines. This print captures the monochromatic energy of the original, maintaining the contrast between the dark, fluid gestures and the lighter background. It offers a clear view of the density and velocity inherent in Pollock's application method, providing an opportunity to examine the construction of the work at a closer scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/red-orange-tan-and-purple-mark-rothko\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRed, Orange, Tan and Purple - Mark Rothko — Mark Rothko\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/untitled-abstract-composition-ink-on-paper-wassily-kandinsky\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eUntitled (Abstract Composition, Ink on Paper) - Wassily Kandinsky — Wassily Kandinsky\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jackson Pollock","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58843769340239,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58843770683727,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58843770716495,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Number-23_Poster_CompositorV1_1790018313892.jpg?v=1790019761","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/number-23-jackson-pollock","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
