As the controversy over the “Matter Pollocks” found in a Long Island storage locker fades away, another painting attributed to Jackson Pollock has become the center of a dispute. A Long Island couple, Ken and Kathy Parker, believe that the painting, which was given to Ken Parker’s father more than 20 years ago, is a work by the artist. Four experts who have examined a fingerprint on the back of the stretcher disagree about it, one asserting that it is Pollock’s and another charging that the print is forged. Meanwhile, a New York woman says that she gave the painting to Ken Parker Sr. and that it most definitely is not a Jackson Pollock.
