“Pollock has embedded nails, tacks, buttons, keys, coins, a torn cigarette, matches, and paint-tube tops into the surface – witnesses of the accidental nature of the ‘painting’ process and of the legitimacy of the trouser-pocket paraphernalia – as three-dimensional textural agents to amplify the signifying potential of the image.”
And that is why Pollock’s “paintings” are so easily forged. Personally I feel he was just a person with a dynamic personality the was able to con a wealthy sponsor, not really a artist.

Waud Magner got her first tattoo where (not location on her body, but rather from where she obtained it)?
What’s so special about Piblo Pacasso’s paintings compared to Gincent van Vogh’s?

I understand that if they catch you stealing a Picasso, they put you in a small, barred cube.

Actually, in North American native tribes who practiced tattooing (quite a few), it was often the women who did the tattooing.
