Pictures as Drama: Tragedy, ecstasy, and doom
Resisting interpretation or classification, Mark Rothko (1903–1970) was a prominent advocate for the artist's consummate freedom of expression. Although identified as a key protagonist of the Abstract Expressionist movement, first formed in New York City, Rothko rejected the label and insisted instead on "a consummated experience between picture and onlooker."
Following a repertoire of figurative works, Rothko developed his now iconic canvases of bold color blocks in red, yellow, ochre, maroon, black, green. With these shimmering, pulsating color masses, Rothko stressed that he had not removed the human figure but rather put symbols or shapes in its place. These intense color forms contained all the tragedy of the human condition. At the same time, Rothko explicitly empowered the viewer in the expressive potential of his work. He believed "A picture lives by companionship, expanding and quickening in the eyes of the sensitive observer."
From his early development through to his most famous color fields, this book introduces the intellect and influence of Rothko's dramatic, intimate, and revolutionary work.

評分還記得很多年前第一次看到Rothko的畫的時候,覺得這什麼鬼我也會憑什麼幾百萬美元之類的大傢都會有的感覺。去年第一次去瞭Washington DC的National Gallery of Art之後,買瞭本Rothko的日曆,我掛在瞭實驗室,5月份的封麵是他的Untitled (Black on grey),灰色底的黑色大色塊,...

評分一個有些emotional的下午在書店一口氣讀完瞭 現代畫最愛Rothko 有幸在MFA看瞭他的特展 45公分的距離讓畫的邊界消失 他的畫情感熱烈又直接 燃燒得太猛烈所以66歲就自殺瞭 我總是喜歡不得已離開故土的藝術傢的作品 身份遊離的人自己是孤獨的 卻能成為極好的藝術傢 給彆人帶來福祉
