Blue Poles
Blue Poles is a 1952 abstract expressionist painting by Jackson Pollock. At the time of the painting's creation, Pollock preferred not to assign names to his works, but rather numbers. According to art historian Dennis Phillips, the specific rather than ambiguous title
"Limits our field of comprehension and does the painting a singular disservice. Because we look for the poles and miss much of the rest, the name is simply too distracting."
Make of that what you wish.
