Rothko,
Mark (1923-1997)
(1903-1970)Rothko immigrated
to the United States with his Russian-Jewish family in
1913 and moved ten years later to New York, where he studied
at the Art Students League. Throughout the 1930s he made
figurative paintings on mostly urban themes. In 1940,
in search of more profound and universal themes and impressed
by his readings of Nietzsche and Jung, Rothko began to
engage with ancient myths as a source of "eternal
symbols". Rothko first made compositions based on
classical myths and then, by the mid-1940s, painted biomorphic,
Surrealist-inspired, hybrid creatures floating in primordial
waters. At the end of the decade these forms began to
change into floating color shapes with loose, undefined
edges within larger expanses of color. By 1949, Rothko
had arrived at the basic two or three soft-edged rectangles
which were to form the works of the next 20 years. He
applied thin washes of oil paint that contain many tonal
variations and blurred the edges of the rectangles to
create luminous color effects and a shifting, ambiguous
space. In the late 1950s Rothko began to move away from
bright, sensuous color toward hues that were deep and
somber. He received commissions for large public spaces,
such as in the Seagram Building in New York, at Harvard
University, and in a chapel in Houston, Texas, built by
Philip Johnson. Rothko examplifies another and quite different
aspect of abstract expressionism, which has been described
as "meditative" as opposed to the "expressive"
style of Jackson Pollock.
