(*) Mark Rothko, alongside Pollock, was one of the leading emblems 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. Of obviously Jewish family, he emigrated to Oregon in 1910, probably fleeing antisemitism that drove many minds to escape.
He studied art in the 1920s, but considered himself autodidact. Before World War II he cultivated expressionist figuration and absorbed 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 figurative reference, 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 wide rectangular color fields with undefined boundaries between them. The colors are blurred, floating suspended on the canvas, stimulating quite interesting mystical sensations.
From there, Mark Rothko would become an institution of American art. Protected by Peggy Guggenheim, his successes were notable. But by the late 1960s, amid a depressive crisis, and after painting his series of works with black acrylic, he would end up taking his own life.
