As with most “modern” artists Pollock is only famous because of a wealthy patron, “Peggy Guggenheim began expressing interest in Pollock’s paintings. During a meeting she had with the painter Pete Norman, he saw some of Pollock’s paintings lying on the floor and commented that Pollock’s art was possibly the most original American art he had seen. Guggenheim immediately put Pollock on contract.”. The average man on the street looks at a Pollock and goes “Eh?”. Whereas the Rodin, Lichtenstein, and Munch can be appreciated by everyone. In fact there have been a recent group of fake Pollocks brought out that even the so called experts have an extremely hard time as to whether it is real or a fake.
