A clever, charmingly quirky portrayal of painter Jackson Pollock - and
the first in a series of picture-book biographies of contemporary
artists
Jackson Pollock was unlike any other painter. Instead of sitting in
front of an easel with brushes, he poured paint over canvases rolled-out
across the floor, moving, splashing, and making the vivid liquid run
with energy and rhythm. Pollock's story is told here with wit and
eccentricity, perfectly paired with black-line illustrations - and
splatters galore. Fausto Gilberti brings movement, life, and whimsy to
the true life story of one of the most important contemporary artists of
our time.
