Hello out there and greetings from a foggy London.
I have to write an essay called " Trace the development of the work of
Jackson Pollock and assess its representativeness of Abstract
Expressionism at Large." Has anyone got any ideas or can you suggest some
sources of reference ? Thanks in advance for your help.

The best book I have ever read on the subject of Abstract Expressionism is
"The spirit of Abstract Expressionism" by Elaine de Kooning. It is a
collection of essays she wrote on art and artists, including many
interviews and discussions she had with the artists in their studios, as
well as her thoughts about her own art.

I don'd think she covered Pollock specifically, but there is enough
background material in there to keep you more than satisfied...

Best,
Tom
