[ 책 소개 ]
* Robert F. Sibert Award 수상작
* A New York Times Best Book of the Year 수상작
* A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year 수상작
이 책은 현대 미술사의 최고 거장으로 손꼽히는 잭슨 폴록이 회화작품을 창작하는 과정을 흥미진진하게 보여줍니다.
어느 늦은 봄날 아침, 잭슨은 그림을 그리기 위해 집을 나섭니다.
그의 스튜디오는 온갖 공구들과 잡동사니들이 널려 있는 창고.
그의 이젤은 넓은 창고 바닥.
그의 캔버스는 코팅이 되어 있지 않아서 물감을 잘 흡수하는 넓은 천.
그의 물감은 철물점에서 산 일반 페인트.
모든 것들이 그 당시의 화가들과는 달랐던 잭슨은 그림을 그리는 방법도 이전에는 결코 상상할 수 없었던 새롭고 독창적인 것이었습니다. 커다란 캔버스를 바닥에 펼쳐놓고 사방을 돌며, 캔버스 위로 물감을 흘리고, 끼얹고, 튀기고, 쏟아 부으면서 몸 전체로 그림을 그렸습니다. 그것은 떨어뜨린 물감의 흔적이 층위를 쌓아가면서 화면의 밀도를 높여감과 동시에 작가의 다이내믹한 제작행위를 직접 캔버스에 기록하는 것이었으므로 ‘액션 페인팅’이라 불리게 되었으며, 그의 별명도 이 책의 제목과 같이 Action Jacson으로 불리우게 되었습니다.
이런 창작과정을 거쳐 완성된 그의 대표작 "Number 1, 1950 (Lavender Mist)"이 실사 사진으로 이 책 22페이지~23페이지에 실려 있습니다. 책 말미에는 잭슨 폴록의 일대기, Notes and Sources, Bibliography가 수록되어 있습니다.

Book Description
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
Nicknamed "Action Jackson" for his kinetic style, abstract artist Jackson Pollack takes the spotlight in this outstanding picture book biography. Collaborators Greenberg and Jordan (Chuck Close: Up Close) 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 penstrokes; 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.
School Library Journal
Ed Harris, the actor who played artist Jackson Pollock in the 2000 film, Pollock, narrates this award-winning book By Jan Greenberg and Sandra Jordan (Roaring Brook, 2002). Harris's narration is expressive and warm, as listeners are given a peek into the life of a usually private man. This picture book biography focuses on a two-month period when he created Number 1, 1950 (Lavender Mist). It explores how Jackson worked, what inspired him, and his daily routine. His groundbreaking techniques were influenced by music, nature, and other artists. Though controversial, his splattered abstract paintings were truly unique and innovative for his time. Sound effects and jazzy musical interludes add richness to the story. Page-turn signals are included on track one. Pauses in narration and before the signals encourage the listener to linger over Robert Andrew Parker's colorful and energetic illustrations. The book contains an extended biography, notes, sources, and a bibliography not included in the audio version. An excellent addition to a school and public library collections. |
