(*) Mark Rothko, together with Pollock, was one of the foremost representatives of American abstraction. With his painting he aimed to achieve an ambitious utopia: to express the most basic universal emotions. And for many he achieved it.
Markus Rothkovitz was born in Russia. From a clearly Jewish family, he emigrated to Oregon in 1910, probably fleeing the antisemitism that caused so many minds to flee.
He studied art in the 1920s, but considered himself self-taught. Before World War II he cultivated expressionist figuration and absorbed the spirit of the vanguards he saw in exhibitions organized by MoMA.
After the war he began to investigate color field painting, gradually abandoning figurative references, and in the 1950s, with abstract expressionism already established, he began the personal abstraction that would define his painting ever since.
Rothko’s paintings, enormous, show broad rectangular fields of color with undefined boundaries between them. They are blurred colors that float suspended on the canvas, stimulating quite interesting mystical sensations.
From then on, Mark Rothko would become an institution of American art. Protected by Peggy Guggenheim, his successes would be notable. But at the end of the 1960s, amid a depressive crisis, and after painting his series of works with black acrylic, he would commit suicide.
