Jackson Pollock (American 1912-1956). Sea Change 1947. Artist and commercial oil paint, with gravel, on canvas; 57 7/8 x 44 1/8 inches. Seattle Art Museum, gift of Signora Peggy Guggenheim.
Frank Stella (American b. 1936). Avicenna 1960. Alkyd paint on canvas, 74 1/2 x 72 inches. Menil Collection, Houston.
Pollock incorporated industrial enamel paints into his drip paintings, in part for their heaviness and viscosity; that type of paint makes better drips. Robert Goodnough mentioned the paint in "Pollock Paints a Picture," a piece in the May, 1951 issue of ArtNews:
Occasionally aluminum paint was added, tending to hold the other colors on the same plane as the canvas. (Pollock uses metallic paint much in the same sense that earlier painters applied gold leaf, to add a feeling of mystery and adornment to the work and to keep it from being thought of as occupying the accepted world of things. He finds that aluminum often accomplishes this more successfully than greys, which he first used.) (Source.)
That comment about holding the colors on the same plane as the canvas is similar to Frank Stella's stated purpose for using metallic paint in many of his insistently flat pinstripe paintings. He said metallics "had a quality of repelling the eye in the sense that you couldn't penetrate it very well." (Source.)
