Painting - Oil on Canvas (193 × 110 cm) 1943-45

Jackson Pollock's “Two” is a revisitation of Indian tribal painting in which Pablo Picasso's influence on Pollock is still quite present.

We perceive a double source of inspiration in the two characters, the man and the woman, represented here in a relationship with a strong sexual connotation.

It is also one of the last figurative paintings by Pollock before he turned to abstraction.

Jackson Pollock started working on “Two” in 1943.

But he did not finish it until 1945 for his second exhibition at Peggy Guggenheim's Art of this Century Gallery in New York City.
