Abstract expressionism

Abstract expressionism is a post–World War II art movement in American painting, developed in New York in the 1940s.[1] It was the first specifically American movement to achieve international influence and put New York City at the center of the western art world, a role formerly filled by Paris. 
Namuth - Pollock.jpg Jackson Pollock is an artist that explores abstract expressionism. I particularly like the freeness and the expressive ways that he had used too paint. Paul Jackson Pollock (January 28, 1912 – August 11, 1956), known professionally as Jackson Pollock, was an influential American painter and a major figure in the abstract expressionist movement. He was well known for his unique style of drip painting.
