Softcover, 204 pages, ENG, 310 x 275 x 25 mm, in very good condition, illustrated in colour / b/w. ISBN 9783905632118. Mark Rothko sought to make paintings that would bring people to tears. ?I?m interested only in expressing basic human emotions?tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on,? he declared. ?And the fact that a lot of people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures shows that I can communicate those basic human emotions?.If you?are moved only by their color relationships, then you miss the point.?1 Like his fellow New York School painters Barnett Newman and Clyfford Still, Rothko painted to plumb the depths of himself and the human condition. For him, art was a profound form of communication, and art making was a moral act. 1450 g.
