Who the #$&% is Jackson Pollock?, by solar77 on Mar 28, 2008 17:21:36 GMT 1, So what do you all think? Real or fake?
By the way, the painting was on ebay last week with a starting price in the millions.

Who the #$&% is Jackson Pollock?, by newmang on Mar 28, 2008 20:40:20 GMT 1, Just watched it. Fascinating insight into the world of trailer parks and pompous twats in suits who's worlds are clearly never allowed to cross.
Something about the whole story doesn't feel right though. She said she saw it in the thrift store and hated it so why would she buy it for her best friend? Also you'd have thought that the person who got rid of the painting would have come forward with all the publicity. I'm sure you'd remember having that lying around your house!
Would be great if they found some provenance though, just to see the curator from MOMA look even more stupid than he did in the film.

Who the #$&% is Jackson Pollock?, by andrewd on Mar 28, 2008 20:46:17 GMT 1, Pollock didn't sell too many paintings. The film of his life shows him trying to swap them for groceries.
Also heard a tale of a postman who decided a weeks wages was too much to pay for Pollock's Boogie Woogie which recently sold for ten of millions.
He's been regretting it ever since!

Mine too, I go to Tate Modern just to see his works, even though I've seen them hundreds of times before.
