Description
In August 1949, LIFE Magazine ran a headline that begged the question
"Jackson Pollock: Is he the greatest living painter in the United States?"
Already well known in the New York art world, Pollock had become a household name - America's first "Art Star" - and his controversial style of painting (as typified by the infamous 'Blue Poles') continued to change the course of modern art. But the torments that plagued the artist all his life continued to haunt him. As he struggled with self-doubt, engaging in a lonely tug-of-war between needing to express himself and wanting to shut the world out, Pollock began a downward spiral that ended in his tragic death at the age of 44.
