LOS ANGELES – After a little nip here and a tuck there, “Mural,” Jackson Pollock’s brilliant, larger-than-life painting, is once again ready for its close-up.<\/p>\n

The oil-on-canvas work, measuring more than 8 feet (2.4 metres) high and nearly 20 feet (6.1 metres) long, has been under wraps at the J. Paul Getty Museum for more than a year undergoing extensive restoration.<\/p>\n

Officials of the Los Angeles museum showed the results Monday. The painting goes on display to the general public Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The work represents a key turning point in Pollock’s career. It marks his move away from symbolic, regional forms to the abstract expressionism he would become known for.<\/p>\n

The painting, owned by the University of Iowa, will be on display at The J. Paul Getty Museum for three months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
