Painting (Silver over Black, White, Yellow and Red) (1948) is an important early example of Jackson Pollock’s drip technique, created during the pivotal moment when he was transitioning from semi-figurative compositions to full abstraction. Executed on canvas laid flat on the floor, the work embodies Pollock’s radical rethinking of both pictorial space and the act of painting itself—an approach that would soon define Abstract Expressionism.

The composition is structured around a dark, nearly black ground, over which Pollock layered skeins and splatters of silver aluminum paint, interwoven with white, yellow, and red. The metallic silver lines hover above the surface, catching light and creating a shifting spatial effect that contrasts with the matte darkness beneath. This interplay produces a sense of depth without traditional perspective, replacing illusionistic space with an all-over, pulsating field of movement.

Pollock’s gestures appear both spontaneous and controlled. The rhythmic drips and pours form dense networks that suggest motion, energy, and psychological intensity, while avoiding any fixed focal point. Influences from Surrealist automatism, Native American sand painting, and Jungian ideas of the unconscious are evident in the work’s improvisational yet deliberate structure.

Painted in 1948—the year Pollock fully committed to his signature method—the work marks a decisive break from easel painting and conventional composition. It anticipates his celebrated large-scale canvases of the early 1950s, while retaining a darker, more introspective tonality characteristic of his earliest drip paintings.
