Deluxe and comprehensive, this revelatory volume examines the
brilliance of Mark Rothko (1903 1970), a pioneer artist of the New
York School and major figure in the Abstract Expressionist
movement. Illustrated with more than 275 images that explore his
paintings, prints, and works on paper, this book highlights the
best known and also lesser known works by Rothko from his early
figurative and Surrealist works to his mesmerizing colour-field
paintings of immense scale, to the more restricted palette of his
luminous later works and his final series of black and gray
paintings. Among Rothko s artistic philosophies, he held that
painting was a deeply psychological and spiritual experience
through which basic human emotions could be communicated. Kate
Rothko Prizel and Christopher Rothko draw on intimate knowledge of
the artworks and the artist s life to give a fuller picture of
their father and place him within the context of art history.
Alexander Nemerov and Hiroshi Sugimoto provide reflections about
the artist s work.
