Jackson Pollock, icon of the abstract expressionist movement, was born 100 years ago today. One of the first American artists to achieve a worldwide reputation, he’s still celebrated for radically challenging artistic conventions. “I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc.,” he said, “because the painting has a life of its own.”

i got one of his artworks for my 6th grade art class’ auction assignment and no one wanted to bid on it so the teacher had to the bid the minimum 200
