Press release / PRESS INFORMATION
the end of an era - the ultimate tribute to pollock - my pollock story
one day,
some time ago actually,
I had some terrible dreams during the night
I was about four years old,
the dreams were so heavy and incredibly weird, that I, as a child in time
not knowing anything yet about life and paintings, was really afraid of those dreams
it were dreams of pictures, of weird forms
of strong, very colourful pictures of all possible things, all mixed up and leaving me as a very afraid child behind with my dreams.
I mostly woke up crying
because they kept coming back
over and over again
but I did not dare to tell anyone about these dreams
because no one would believe me,
would they?
only years later, when I was already in the midst of real action painting
I bought a book about painting and painters
my interest was immediately drawn by some pictures of paintings that were so to speak, in the same line, as I was making them
it were Pollock's paintings
I started to read about this man and his life and his paintings
I saw his paintings
I saw his drive
I recognized his way of thinking and aggression towards it all
I saw that he died in 1956
I was made in 1956
and I was born on st Patrick day, in march 1957.
my first name is Patrick
but my parents didn't even know about the existance of st patricksday
I am not trying to insinuate anything here,
I am just stating facts that really happened in my life.
Because they did happen.
Enjoy my paintings
As from now on
I will try to pass through this "pollock" period
and combine all elements I have found in this flabbergasting encounter
with new forms and methods
to go on creating Art, as this is neccessary for me,
on the same level
as breathing is.
