Jackson Pollock was one of the most influential painters of Abstract Expressionism, and his painting technique, known as "action painting" or "dripping," revolutionized the art world. Although I could not find information on a specific work called "Composition with Woman," Pollock often created works without a clear center of gravity, with a strongly emotional and spontaneous character
His paintings reflect the artist's deep interest in symbolism, the subconscious and mythology, which was typical of his work. Pollock used unusual working methods, such as pouring paint directly onto canvases spread out on the floor, which allowed him to be fully involved in the creative process and be "literally in the painting."
As for the 1934 painting "Composition with a Woman," it is possible that another name for this work also exists in the art world. Pollock often changed the titles of his works or did not give them specific names, focusing more on emotional expression and abstract visual language than on literal representation. Pollock believed that art should come from the nature of man, and his paintings reflect this philosophy.
Later, Pollock moved away from titling his works, only numbering them. As he explained: "Numbers are neutral. They make people look at the painting for what it is - pure painting."
Jackson Pollock's works fetch very high prices at auction, reflecting their great artistic and historical value. For example, Pollock's painting titled. "Number 19, 1948" was sold for a record $58.3 million at Christie's auction house. An even higher sum was reached by a work titled. "No. 5, 1948," which was sold during a private transaction for $140 million. These sums testify to the fact that Pollock is one of the most highly regarded artists on the contemporary art market.
