Abstract
Expressionist artist Jackson Pollock is one of the painters who made an important breakthrough in the history of art. The artist has boldly used the new signs of life of art on his canvases and created the most creative works. In his works, which he performs with melody-laden, dazzling colors, he has performed works that do not overdo it, just as if they reflect a universal harmony. Pollock's introverted works, which do not cling to a rational utopia, have an understanding that does not get stuck in a distant past. He also has the goal of getting rid of scary truths and expressing the truth that he is after. Reflecting his boundless energy on his canvas, Jackson Pollock opposed the forms imposed on him and took steps towards creating his own form and style. Abstract Expressionism is not an aimless art, it reconsiders the reality of the inner world. Reflecting a reality of the embodied mind, Jackson Pollock creates an expression of the embodied inner world in mental enlightenment. Jackson Pollock, who freely reflects his boundless energy on his canvases, opposed the forms imposed on him. Jackson Pollock, who revealed the testability of art in a poetic universe instead of taking refuge in spiritual realities, realized his works with an optimistic atmosphere aimed at artistic freedom. The artist Jackson Pollock, who uses an unlimited freedom in his works, has pushed the boundaries of the art he is passionately attached to. Pollock, whose thoughts on art were very clear and obvious, broke the chain of bondage in art and presented new ideas for art. Therefore, the artist's adoption of an understanding of art in this way has revealed a different approach to art. This has created differentiated formations in the art environment and has led to many researches. In this direction, this article is intended to address a series of works by Jackson Pollock depicting the boundless creativity of the artist, which are mentioned in the understanding of art adopted by the artist and the Decoupling between his work. In this sense, the necessary data have been scanned and the point where the art field has also gained a place has been touched upon.
