Supportig program of the exhibition Jackson Pollock's Mural: Energy made visible.

Peggy Guggenheim’s support of Jackson Pollock in the 1940s was of crucial importance to Pollock’s career, and was her most palpable contribution to the history of 20th century art. Her patronage included four one-man shows, the commissioning of his largest ever painting and his debut in Europe at the Venice Biennale in 1948. Dr. Philip Rylands, Director of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, talks about the extraordinary collector and her commitment to art. In English.
