Now, these show something.
This is better.
:26:16
The most powerful work
to come around the pike.
:26:19
There's no three ways about it.
:26:22
You're not really a surrealist
and, well, my few Americans are.
:26:27
What's most impressed Jackson
about the European moderns...
:26:30
...is their concept that the source
of art comes from the unconscious.
:26:36
Yes, yes. I'm sure.
:26:47
Howard. Jackson, Howard's here.
:26:51
Do you want coffee?
:26:56
- Jackson?
- Yeah.
:26:58
Howard's here.
:27:00
Hi, Howard.
:27:02
You've got your first one-man show.
Art of This Century, November 7th.
:27:06
- Bravo, Jackson.
- Congratulations.
:27:09
Here, have a seat.
:27:12
Peggy will give you a stipend
of $150 a month.
:27:17
" If at year's end the artist does not
sell equivalent to the advance...
:27:21
...plus one-third commission, he will
make up the difference in paintings."
:27:25
If you don't sell $2400 worth,
Peggy owns all the work. So sell.
:27:30
In addition, Peggy has
commissioned you to paint...
:27:33
...a mural for the entrance hall to her
new townhouse on 61 st and Lexington.
:27:39
And it's big, Jackson.
Eight feet by 20 feet.
:27:42
You have total artistic license.
Paint anything you like.
:27:46
You will be the sensation
of the season.
:27:59
This is my new painter,
Jackson Pollock.
