=D Yay, last lecture. Now, if only it will start.... Oh, here we go. Wait, no, another movie... And this one has music! Yay... Oh, ok, his name is Jackson Pollock. Made them 60 years ago...
Jackson Pollock was the epitome of American modern art. "Jack the Dripper"
JP : art :: B-12 : military Abstract Expressionism painting 1950 - 1980's
"Action Painting"
Pollock had HUGE paintings. He would lay the canvas on the floor and walk around then. He said that painting wasn't about thinking, it was about being.
Abstract Expressionism only took place in a very narrow window of time. Very dogmatic, debatable.
Cy Twombly (<--- ugh)
totally opposite of Jackson Pollock.
Bryce Martin (is that right...?)
Ultra-Minimalist. You can do anything in art. Did ultra-minimalist paintings in one part of career, and color abstract loopy things in another part.

Dude. Morris Lewis' veils of paint look awesome. He used acrylic paint, which was invented around this time... It wasn't believed to be good for painting.
