Mark Rothko's work is among the most recognisable in modern art
history. His huge colour-field works enjoy enormous popularity for
their luminosity, moodiness, and immersive qualities. But he didn't
always paint in bold, simple swaths of colour. This graphic
biography traces Rothko's entire life, from his boyhood emigration
from Russia to America, to his suicide in 1970. It touches on his
schooling and early work for the WPA in the 1930s; the evolution of
his art from representational to purely abstract; and the dawning
of his artistic philosophy, which took him farther and farther away
from the material world and toward a universally emotional and
expressionist modality. The book's finely detailed drawings are
Rothko's signature colours and draw readers into his fascinating
creative journey. While Rothko the artist was largely misunderstood
during his lifetime, this unique graphic biography offers a way of
making sense of his life and of decoding the visual language he
invented.
