Abstract (en)
Surveys the career and political activity of the Mexican painter, focusing on his works in the United States, and discusses his strong, even transformative influence on Pollock's painting beginning as early as 1930. Points out stylistic and thematic parallels in the two artists' work, and shows how Orozco's example allowed Pollock to move toward the integration of figurative imagery with motifs from Native American art, and eventually to the poured and dripped paintings for which he is best known.
