Jackson Pollock struggled all his life with the self-destruction he was prone to. But he was unfortunately a lover of alcohol, and his death occurred in a car accident caused by his intoxication. In 1950, the artist created Autumn Rhythm #30. Jackson Pollock created his innovative dripping technique in 1947. It was a radical approach to the distribution of color on canvas. Three years later, with Autumn Rhythm (Number 30), he reached the highest level of his expressive power. In this painting, where a non-representation appears, painting is manifested through the intense and wild use of brushstrokes. Pollock used pieces of wood, knives, and palettes to throw and drip color onto the canvas and produce a composition compressed and enmeshed between innumerable lines.
Probably the result of an inner chaos, his works are incredibly rich in energy, confusion and movement.
