What does Jackson Pollock Art Insurance Cover?
Jackson Pollock is synonymous with radical innovation, raw emotion, and the redefinition of modern art. Emerging as a central figure in the Abstract Expressionist movement, Pollock revolutionised painting with his groundbreaking "drip technique," transforming the act of painting into a physical, performative expression. Dispensing with traditional tools and perspectives, he turned canvases into fields of energy, gesture, and psychological depth—an enduring legacy that continues to influence contemporary art.
Key Works from the Jackson Pollock Collection:
No. 5, 1948 stands among Pollock’s most iconic and enigmatic creations. Executed on fibreboard with industrial paints, the work features a dense, interwoven lattice of browns, yellows, greys, and blacks that evoke a visceral intensity. Its layered chaos—both spontaneous and deliberate—embodies the essence of Pollock’s drip method. Shrouded in mystique and commanding immense cultural and monetary value, it remains a pinnacle of American post-war abstraction.
Blue Poles (1952), originally known as Number 11, 1952, signals a transition in Pollock’s practice. Retaining the energy of his earlier drip works, it introduces eight striking vertical bars of vivid blue, adding a structural counterbalance to the abstract motion. The painting demonstrates a new compositional discipline, anchoring explosive splashes of colour within an underlying framework. Today, it is considered a national treasure in Australia and a landmark in the global history of modern art.
Number 1 (Lavender Mist) (1950) is among Pollock’s most lyrical and immersive works. Despite its title, the piece contains no lavender—rather, it shimmers with layers of grey, pink, silver, and black in a web of fine, rhythmic drips and splatters. The canvas is entirely enveloped in motion, devoid of hierarchy, with no single focal point. Held in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, it exemplifies the transcendental power of Pollock’s technique and remains one of the most emotionally resonant abstract paintings ever created.
