Number 48

'Number 48' by Jackson Pollock (1949) exemplifies his revolutionary Abstract expressionism, characterized by the dynamic drip technique that involves pouring and splashing liquid household paint onto a horizontal canvas. This method allows Pollock to create layered, frenetic compositions that cover the entire surface, embodying the principles of all-over painting and action painting. His energetic approach, often likened to a dancing motion, emphasizes spontaneity and physical engagement, dividing critics and redefining the boundaries of Abstract art.
