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.
