Jackson Pollock's Mural by David Anfam
Jackson Pollock's Mural, created early in his career in 1943, is a vast panorama spanning a 6-metre-long canvas. The author considers the manifold influences on Pollock that led to this landmark achievement - including the context of the American West, and his little-known relationship with Clyfford Still and the importance of wartime photography.
