  • Kate Rothko introduce us to her father Mark exhibition in Rome
    (October 6th 2007 January 6th 2008) curated by Oliver Wick and produced by PalaExpo and Artemisia.
    The first exhibition that spread the knowledge of his work in our Country has been the one presented in the Venice Biennale in 1958, the corpus of paintings from the room devoted to the artist at that time, is now back in Italy after 50 years.
    The tradition of the Italian Renaissance, and above all its frescoes, had a remarkable influence on the series of mural commissions pertaining to Rothkos classic period. In fact, he explored its possibilities also in his Surrealist works, in which he gradually perfected the technique of applying extremely thin layers of colour, or washes.
    The exhibition ends with the artists last works, the Black on Gray paintings, a group that marks the climax of an oeuvre that steadily became more austere and moved towards new artistic horizons that were in direct relationship with the viewer. (O. Wick)
    Cinematography: Massimo Nunnari
    Music: Federico Laterza

    I’m painting my laundry room right now, and it gives me a new appreciation for this work. Not as easy as it looks. My wrist is tired after only 15 minutes!!!

    the people who become angry at works like this and insult those who are able to enjoy them prove one thing to me, that is art still has the power to provoke. I find it amusing that people feel the need to insult some one because their taste in art is different, that proves something to me as well the world will always be full of small minded people.

    I admire all of his work including these. For me, it is a line between darkness and light.

    How great Mark Rothko was. What really interests me about his work is his rejection of decoration. What makes his work timeless is his obsession with the sublime. Romanticism is the only antidote to the cold heartless cynicism of modernism. Rothko maybe the last of the great authentic American artist. Thanks for this video. His daughter is eloquent and amazing.

    What a treat to hear and see Kate Rothko, I think I've only seen one picture of her as a small child. She seems very comfortable speaking in front of the camera, and her personal comments on her Father's work are very interesting. What a trip it must be for her to go through life with that last name.

    Quando guardo un’opera di ROTHKO sento una forza attrattiva ,sfuggente,rapida. Non riesco e non voglio trattenere questa misteriosa energia.troppo grande per me, io non conosco questa magia, ma la magia sa chi sono.

    Some people probably see entire universe in paintings like this. I see someone painted color samples to help them choose color for the walls.

    Thank you so much. It is great to see the obvious pride and get an understanding of Rothko's work from the daughter who so bravely and successfully stood up to those who would have exploited his estate.

    The very last paintings of Van Gogh which are really shown or seen, are similarly very minimal landscapes that are also dark, depressive and genuine expressions of a deeply pained mind, so painful, especially for someone who has experienced deep depressions and understands fine, modern art. A very sad expression of mental illness executed with tremendous, experimental, skill.

    I've been in this exibition and I was captured by his work. He still is a great influence for me as painter. Thank you for sharing.

    I find it very moving that Kate spent so much time with these later black & gray paintings...that she began to see them differently. It must have been a terrible painful journey at first, because she does say that she initially saw what we all see, which is the ending of things that the paintings convey.
    But she stayed with the paintings long enough to see the other thing her father was saying: "energy is neither created nor destroyed, but merely changes form". Every ending is the birthplace of beginning. It's a marvel really, that she looked long enough at the darkness to find light.
    Thank you so much for sharing this video. For me Mark Rothko's work is touched by the god/great spirit he didn't believe in, & it's wonderful to be introduced to a new way of seeing these final works.

    Great stuff. Well explained. For me there are 2 things that are typically skipped or skimped over: his connection to Ad Reinhardt (even if merely on a paint treatment level) and his final pastels. There are so many good Rothko's here, though I still imagine him dimming the lights once you turn your back

    I believe the blacks and greys, as Kate referenced, were influenced by the NASA/moon hysteria that was gripping the US at the time. At least they have a POV as that of a person standing on the moon and looking into space. Brilliant work. You either love Rothko or hate Rothko, and I love him. But I do hate Haring and Basquiat. :-)
