Jackson Pollock is widely considered the most challenging and influential American painter of the twentieth century and one of the primary creators in modern art since 1945. Beginning November 1, 1998, The Museum of Modern Art will present the largest exhibition to date of Pollock's paintings and the first major U. S. retrospective of his work in all mediums since that mounted by the Museum in 1967. Organized by Kirk Varnedoe, Chief Curator, with Pepe Karmel, Adjunct Assistant Curator, Department of Painting and Sculpture, Jackson Pollock provides a fresh chance for new generations to come to terms with this legendary figure. Published in 1967 and edited by Francis V. O'Connor, this rare book from MoMA Publications is available in extremely limited quantities. Each book from this special selection has been stored for decades in MoMA’s warehouse. MoMA’s award-winning publications program has been an integral part of the Museum’s mission since its founding in 1929. These exhibition- and collection-related titles are renowned for their high production values.
