The exhibition Jackson Pollock. The Early Years (1934-1947) traces the early career of Pollock (1912 - 1956), marked by the influence of Regionalism and Mexican muralists, up to his first drippings in 1947. Presented in the setting of the Musée National Picasso in Paris, this exhibition bears witness to the different sources that fueled the research of the young artist, combining the influence of Native American arts with that of the European avant-garde, in which Pablo Picasso figures prominently. The exhibition aims to highlight the intensity and singularity of Jackson Pollock's early work in its different dimensions: from painting to engraving to sculpture.
