The Artist's Reality : Philosophies of ArtRothko, Mark
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
In their stunning simplicity, the famous coloured rectangle paintings by Mark Rothko suggest, evoke and endlessly enthrall. This richly illustrated book reproduces in full colour one hundred of Rothko's paintings, prints and drawings. The volume features four commentaries by art experts who explore various formal aspects of Rothko's work, interviews with contemporary artists who reflect on Rothko's legacy to post-New York School abstraction, and a chronology of the Russian-born artist's life from 1903 to 1970.
"The book is an elegant record of Rothko's work, from his early stiff street scenes to late abstractions that Weiss relates surprisingly to Alberto Giacometti. What the book cannot convey is the way the impact of Rothko's paintings depends on their size. 'Whereas the small painting is only an object,' Weiss writes, 'the large one is also a place.'"
