Product Information

One late spring morning the American artist Jackson Pollock began work on the canvas that would ultimately come to be known as Number 1, 1950 ("Lavender Mist"). Award-winning authors Jan Greenberg and Sandra Jordan use this moment as the departure point for a unique picture book about a great painter and the way in which he worked. Their lyrical text, drawn from Pollock's own comments and those made by members of his immediate circle, is perfectly complemented by vibrant watercolors by Robert Andrew Parker that honor his spirit of the artist without imitating his paintings. A photographic reproduction of the finished painting, a short biography, a bibliography, and a detailed list of notes and sources that are fascinating reading in their own right make this an authoritative as well as beautiful book for readers of all ages.

Publishers Weekly Starred Review   Nicknamed "Action Jackson" for his kinetic style, abstract artist Jackson Pollack takes the spotlight in this outstanding picture book biography. Collaborators Greenberg and Jordan frame their account around a significant period in Pollack's life in 1950, when he created Number 1, 1950 (also called Lavender Mist), one of his most famous paintings. Readers follow Pollack into his barn studio, watch over his shoulder as he lays the canvas on the floor and begins to work all the while learning about his early life and influences ("Like the Native American sand painters he saw as a boy out West, he moves around the canvas coaxing the paint into loops and curves"). Weaving in quotes from Pollack himself and such child-friendly details as the artist's pets (including a tame crow named Caw Caw), the authors craft an imaginative account grounded in solid research and enlivened with lyrical prose ("He swoops and leaps like a dancer, paint trailing from a brush that doesn't touch the canvas"). Parker (To Fly, reviewed below) suggests the artist's graceful motion with the barest of pen strokes; in one spread, Pollock's body curves across both pages as he paints. Whether capturing the intensity of the creative process and the artist's unique choreography or the spare vistas of sea and sky near the artist's Long Island home, Parker's impressionistic pen-and-watercolor illustrations pay homage to the painter's sweep of line and color ("energy and motion made visible," to quote Pollack). An extensive afterword offers notes and sources, as well as photos of Pollack at work and quotes from his friends and colleagues.     Kirkus reviews Starred Review   Art history specialists Greenberg and Jordan (Boston Globe/Horn Book-winning Chuck Close, Up Close, 1998; Sibert Honor-winning Vincent Van Gogh: Portrait of An Artist, 2001) have again pushed the nonfiction envelope with this astonishing biography cum evocation of action painter and abstract expressionist icon Jackson Pollock.  Dubbed "Action Jackson"-or sometimes even "Jack the Dripper"-by critics and admirers alike, Pollock is an acknowledged reference point for all late-20th-century painters.  His influence has captivated the likes of illustrators Norman Rockwell and Ian Falconer and even actor-directors like Ed Harris.  How to parse a painter like Pollock?   In a stroke of expository genius, they focus on a semi-imagined account of an intense period in Pollock's life-May through June 1950.  The brief frenzy of work that produced the transcendent and transformational painting " Number 1, 1950" known as "Lavender Mist."  Greenberg and Jordan make strategic use of contemporaneous accounts and press sources including Hans Namuth's photos and documentary film.  The book's back matter includes the terrifically interesting and surprisingly complete two pages of notes and sources.  A perfect little biographical essay offers all the needed details including this poignant passage, a discreet but unsparing observation that: "Jackson struggled with alcoholism and depression for most of his adult life.  When he was sober, he painted well, but when he was drinking he felt discouraged and temperamental."  In tandem with this, it is hard to convey the equally astonishing strength of Parker's illustrations.  A widely exhibited watercolorist of considerable renown (winner of Boston Globe/Horn Book Award for Cold Feet, 2000), Parker shows us both the mood sensibility of the painter he demonstrates the how  of Pollock's technique.  His semi-realistic and pleasingly spiky India ink drawings are heightened with expansive g
