I read an article a while back about some museum restoring a Jackson Pollock and tried to figure out how you’d do it. Would you just carefully brush in repairs, or would you carefully calculate the angle and velocity of paint splatter, and throw paint at it. And how would anyone know? And who would care?

I was asked to see a film about JP’s life and art, but I just don’t watch splatter films.

A girl I used to play “Masterpiece” with referred to Pollock’s “Grayed Rainbow” as “Vomit”.

I think it’s good that a fish can create “art”.

Saw one of Jackson Pollock’s paintings at the museum in New York. There was a teenager sitting in front of it, totally mesmerized as he studied it.
