SPECIAL EXHIBITION
Krasner and Pollock: Past Continuous
Lee Krasner (American, 1908–1984) and Jackson Pollock (American, 1912–1956) met as emerging artists in New York in the winter of 1941. They married in 1945 and moved to Springs, Long Island, where they remained entwined personally, artistically, and professionally until Pollock’s untimely death. While Pollock’s reputation historically eclipsed Krasner’s, today, both artists’ practices are rightly recognized as central to the innovations of art from the mid-20th century onwards. This exhibition continues and amplifies this reevaluation, on their own terms and in dynamic relation to each other.

About the Artwork

Autumn Rhythm: Number 30, 1950. Jackson Pollock. Oil-modified alkyd resin on canvas. George A. Hearn Fund, 1957. © 2026 Pollock-Krasner Foundation / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York.
The Met acquired this monumental "drip" painting by Pollock in 1957, the year following the artist’s unexpected death—a sign of how quickly his reinvention of painting was accepted into the canon of modern art. However revolutionary in technique, Pollock’s large-scale work was rooted in the muralism of the 1930s, including the art of Thomas Hart Benton and David Alfaro Siqueiros, both of whom he had worked alongside. Pollock proclaimed in 1947: "I intend to paint large movable pictures which will function between the easel and the mural. . . . the tendency of modern feeling is towards the wall picture or mural."
