Nr. 13 (Weiß, Rot auf Gelb)

Mark Rothko American, born former Russian Empire, now Latvia
1958
Not on view
Nach 1950 begann Rothko die Anzahl horizontaler Farbbänder in seinen Bildern auf drei bis vier zu limitieren und arbeitete mit diesem Format bis zu seinem Tod. Unter Verwendung diverser Nassmedien und Variation der Dicke seiner Farbschichten veränderte er im Atelier manchmal die Ausrichtung seiner Bilder. Tatsächlich deuten hier einige der Tropfmuster darauf hin, dass der Künstler an dieser Leinwand zeitweilig arbeitete, indem sie verkehrt herum lag. Hoffend, dass seine durchscheinenden Bilder ihren Betrachter umfangen würden, kommentierte Rothko seine großen Arbeiten als nicht „grandios und pompös" gedacht, sondern als „sehr intim und menschlich".
