Jackson Pollock’s Mural , created early in his career in 1943, is
a vast panorama spanning a 6-metre-long canvas – the largest
painting he ever made. Mural marked a watershed for Pollock: a
presentiment of the epic scale, complexity, energy and ambition of
the work ahead. David Anfam considers the manifold influences on
Pollock that led to this landmark achievement – including the
context of the American West, his hitherto little-known
relationship with Clyfford Still and the importance of wartime
action photography. He also traces the explosive magnetism Mural
exerted over the emergent Abstract Expressionists and its legacy
for painters and sculptors as diverse as Mark Rothko, Robert
Motherwell, David Smith, Richard Serra and Brice Marden. Indeed,
the work’s wider impact on post-war American art is comparable to
that of Picasso’s Demoiselles d’Avignon on European modernism
in the first half of the twentieth century
