This lecture investigates the use of chance in Pollock's later paintings (the so-called drip paintings) and considers connections to musicians and writers who also used chance as a way of expanding their expressive language.

Richard Turnbull (PhD, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University) is chair of the Department of Art History at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and is a long-time lecturer at both MoMA and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
