Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
At the time of Mark Rothko's apparent suicide in 1970, the deeply troubled, pioneering artist of Abstract Expressionism was at the height of fame and financial success; yet within months of the funeral, his three trusted friends, acting as executors, relinquished his entire legacy of 800 paintings to the powerful, international Marlborough Galleries (run by Frank Lloyd) for a fraction of their real worth on terms suspiciously unfavorable to the estate. The suit that Rothko's daughter brought against the executors and Marlborough rocked the art world with its scandalous tale of cheated orphans, missing paintings, laundered money, manipulated markets, phony sales, double-dealing, greed, intrigue, betrayal, power, and artistic servitude.
Review:
"[Even] those who are not attracted to Rothko's paintings or to abstract art itself...[will] feel that great issues are in the balance, far beyond the mere deposition of an artist's estate."
Tom Wolfe
