In 1946 Jackson Pollock painted 'The Key' this is a typical painting of the time when Abstract impressionism was emerging as an art form. Breaking away from convention of form, moving the goal posts as it were in the aim to be thought as an accepted art form, not only the painting but how the painting was created was now just as important if not more so. Pollock was a highly talented and fragile man tormented by demons of his own making as well as those demons of reality of the times of which he lived.

关键-（1946）——The key' - (1946)

The second painting I have chosen by Jackson Pollock to compare which is my personal favourite is ''Lavender Mist'' which I went to see when It came over from the NGA in Washington DC, the painting was on display in the Tate Liverpool gallery for about 6 months you can't compare anything to the real image its stands so tall, its so tall it almost makes you feel 5 centimeters high you can almost feel the energy coming off the canvas and going right up in your face. The painting was originally called 'Number 1' as Pollock preferred not to influence what ones inner self was in a painting it was his wife Lee Krasner that named the painting, and several other paintings of this period. The paintings Jackson Pollock did were nick named ''action paintings'' they were named this because Pollock felt that he just did the paintings he said in an interview Amy Reynolds (1947:12) ''When I'm painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It's only after a get acquainted period that I see what I've been about.''

this specific action painting (lavender mist) was painted as were many of his drip technique paintings they were constructed on the floor where he drizzled paint in vast swatches and flumps with sticks and turkey baister's full of liquid paint in erratic disorganised spats lines and swirls to many this technique produced masterpiece upon masterpiece but to others it came across as a mess any child could create on a wet afternoon in left alone This debate has been pondered by many for many years. But Jackson Pollock himself says,

Deborah Solomon (2001:89) 'On the floor I am more at ease. I feel nearer, more a part of the painting, since this way I can walk around it, work from the four sides and literally be in the painting.

Lavender mist is a huge painting as I stated previously its some 3 meters long and it has an amazing depth to it and it offers a strange sense of tranquillity which is quite unexpected from such an apparently crudely thrown together explosion of colour. Was this the chaos of reflection of Pollock's inner self, the depravation of the society with which he grew up in or his need to self combust. I think that events around him drew him to this spectacular extreme of works and New York's extremes were fertile soil for a tortured soul.

In 1925 Marcel Breuer created one of his most well known pieces the 'Wassily chair'. Taking inspiration from observing bicycles especially their handle bars he bent tubular steel and took reinforced leather to produce a fashion icon the likes of which can still be found in any dentists waiting room or even in the many branches of IKEA. Still as trendy and coveted today as 80 odd years ago. A first and a breakthrough in use of material and simpleness of form
