(*) Mark Rothko, alongside Pollock, was one of the leading figures 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 antisemitism that drove many minds away.
He studied art in the 1920s, but considered himself self-taught. Before World War II he cultivated expressionist figuration and soaked up the spirit of the vanguards he saw in exhibitions organized by the MoMA.
After the war he began to investigate color field painting, gradually abandoning all figurative reference, and in the 50s, with abstract expressionism already established, he began the personal abstraction that would define his painting ever since.
Rothko’s paintings, enormous, show wide rectangular fields of color with undefined boundaries between them. The colors are blurred, floating suspended on the canvas, evoking mystic 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 in the late 60s, amid a depressive crisis, and after painting his series of works with black acrylic, he ultimately committed suicide.
