Action Painting Action painting is a style of abstract expressionist painting characterized by spontaneous, gestural brushwork and the physical act of painting itself. Developed in the 1940s and 1950s, particularly associated with artists such as Jackson Pollock, action painting emphasizes the immediacy and dynamism of the creative process, with artists often working on large-scale canvases placed on the floor to enable expansive, full-body movements. By dripping, splattering, or flinging paint onto the canvas with rhythmic gestures and controlled chaos, action painters sought to capture the energy, emotion, and subconscious impulses inherent in the act of creation, transcending representational concerns in favor of raw, visceral expression. |
