Exhibition Overview: Mark Rothko: Paintings on Paper

Joy, despair, ecstasy, tragedy: these are some of the themes that Mark Rothko sought to express in his luminous art. Rothko is renowned for his towering abstract paintings on canvas, but few people know that he also created nearly 1,000 paintings on paper over the course of his career. He viewed many of these as finished paintings in their own right-not simply preliminary studies intended for his own eyes. These remarkable works challenge our expectations about what “counts” as painting, as well as popular ideas about Rothko and his career.

Sometimes art talks can be long and tedious but not this one. Very well done, lots of insightful information, well researched. I learned a great deal listening to this, and I am well-read on Rothko. As a bonus, some photos of the artist that I have never seen before. I am sure I will watch this again. Thank you for posting!
