Editorial
  • The House
    Collector Peggy Guggenheim lent Jackson Pollock the down payment for this modest abode, which dates from 1879. It was on these grounds that Pollock broke through past conventions by pouring paint directly onto the canvas. Inside the house, you'll find prints by him and his talented wife, as well their furniture and Pollock's extensive jazz collection, just as Krasner left them.

    The Studio
    While Krasner painted in a small bedroom in the house, Pollock used the converted barn to create many of his most important works. Now his canonized art supplies stand side-by-side with a photo-essay documenting the artist's career. Yet the best part is the opportunity to walk across Pollock's paint-covered floor, in special padded slippers.
