No 13 (Blanc, rouge et jaune)

Mark Rothko American, born former Russian Empire, now Latvia
1958
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 830
De 1950 à sa mort, Mark Rothko limite à trois ou quatre le nombre de bandes horizontales colorées dans ses tableaux. Il utilise toutefois plusieurs types de diluant, varie l’épaisseur des couches de peinture et change même parfois l’orientation de ses tableaux en cours de réalisation. De fait, le sens des coulées de peinture sur celui-ci indique qu’il y a travaillé pendant un temps en sens inverse. Il expliquera avoir choisi de peindre à grande échelle non pas dans un esprit « grandiloquent et pompeux » mais parce qu’il souhaitait au contraire être « très intime et humain » et envelopper les spectateurs de ses toiles lumineuses.
