The Form IV Art students are exploring the art of the Abstract Expressionist movement. The process of action painting involves dripping, splattering and flinging paint on a canvas laid out on the floor and was seen as an event or performance which then led to a final product of an artwork. This type of art was founded in the 1940s and ‘50s in New York and was most closely associated with the artist Jackson Pollock. The art students certainly immersed themselves in the process and had a lot of fun producing their collaborative abstract piece.
