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