Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 07, 2022

Paul J. P. (1912-1956) has quite the style

The docent is going to be mighty angry when he notices that somebody was jumping up against the paintings.

Hubby got a wonderful picture of a teenage boy sitting on a bench in front of one of his paintings at the MOMA in NYC totally immersed in it.

Looks like it is an interactive exhibit.

It looks like Lio really got into the exhibit!

Perhaps the museum had a “make your own” area.

Huh. He really got into that exhibit…

Lio’s exit is an abstract expressionist movement.

Anyone can fling p00p on a canvas and call it art.

And you have to be kidding me, GC: since when is “p-o-o-p” considered indecent?

God they would charge you to attend this so call exhibit of art!

OHHH, this reminds me of the late 90s , all the painted Snoopy statures around the Twin Cities. One was all splattered.

Now most of us know that JP’s canvases weren’t painted willy-nilly. He consciously placed the paint exactly where he intended to place it.

An interactive Pollack exhibit? That’s an exhibit I’d attend. Kinda like the pie fight, from The Great Race, but with buckets of paint.

Jack the Dripper, aka Jackson Pol.lock. Ed Harris starred in a film about Pol.lock’s life, “Pol.lock” (2000) ((Please remove the superfluous periods if you look for more info.))

Lio is the canvas!
