Mark Rothko American, born former Russian Empire, now Latvia
1958
Not on view
Após 1950, Rothko começou a limitar o número de faixas horizontais de cor de seus quadros a três ou quatro e trabalhou nesse formato até a sua morte. Usando vários tipos de tintas e com espessuras variadas, ele às vezes alterava a orientação de suas pinturas em seu ateliê. Alguns dos padrões de gotejamento desta obra, por exemplo, indicam que o artista trabalhou com a tela de cabeça para baixo por algum tempo. Na esperança de que as suas obras fossem envolver o público, Rothko comentou que não criava quadros grandes para parecer “grandioso ou pomposo”, mas para ser “muito amigável e humano.”
