A delightfully quirky introduction to one of art's most revolutionary artists

This charmingly witty biography tells Pollock's story with perfect eccentricity, paired with distinctive black-line illustrations and delightful splatters throughout.

Written and illustrated by Fausto Gilberti, an accomplished Italian painter and illustrator, this book brings movement, life, and whimsy to the true story of one of the most important contemporary artists of our time. The clever narrative captures Pollock's revolutionary "drip technique" and his unique approach to creating art through whole-body movement and rhythm.

Part of an acclaimed series of picture-book biographies of contemporary artists. The distinctive art style features zany characters that make art history feel both accessible and entertaining for young readers.

The book ends with examples of Pollock's actual artwork and a more traditional biography section, making it perfect for curious minds who want to explore further.

Suitable for children aged 4-7 years.

Pages: 48
