This is just a reminder that you don't have an essay this week, because we watched the documentary "Who the #$%& is Jackson Pollock." However, you were asked to consider a few things during the film, which are listed below. I am just asking for a short definition for question 1, but question 2 and 3 should take you around a paragraph or two to be answered completely. Please type your response if your handwriting is poor. Please bring the assignment to our next class.
1) What is provenance?
2) Do you think that Teri Horton was instinctively drawn to the work?/Do you think that she unconsciously recognized good design when she saw it, even though she didn't care for the work?
3). Do you find Thomas Hoving's arguments compelling? (That the painting is too neat; he artist uses colors that Pollock never used. Some lines are perfectly straight, which is not characteristic of Pollock's work).
