Reflections of the Big Dipper, 1947: A Masterpiece of Jackson Pollock's Drip Period
Jackson Pollock's Reflections of the Big Dipper (1947) is a seminal work from his revolutionary drip period, where he abandoned traditional brushwork to pour, splash, and drizzle paint onto canvases laid on the floor. This piece captures the dynamic energy of his signature technique, with layers of swirling lines and splatters that evoke the celestial constellation. As a key example of abstract expressionism, it embodies the raw emotion and spontaneity that defined Pollock's career and continues to influence modern art.
