    Quite possibly one of my favourite paintings, Blue over Red I remember seeing it for the first time as a boy. One of my English teachers brought us art books in the 5th grade. It instantly mesmerised me. Malevich is also a pioneer, probably even more then Rothko.

    Dear Lisa Dennison, thank you so much for bringing Mark Rothko close to me in such a fine way, like friends talking about an Artist they both admire. People count me to the transavanguarde painters but Rothko is one of my "friends" who "visits" me on a regular basis. I hope to see more videos with you in the near future,
    Greetings from Austria, Christian Tettinek.
    Please excuse my bad english writing!

    I'm not an emotional, sentimental, touchy'feely, don't tear up at tug the heart commercials kinda guy, ...but this Blue Over Red piece, does make me aware and acknowledge a sliver minuscule smidge of feeling in me and for me, that's big. So it's an ok painting,

    It's difficult to forget or ignore the time when legitimate art "experts" couldn't tell which of several abstract paintings was created by a chimpanzee.
    The human mind is incredibly predictable. All it takes is being told. Just the suggestion that something is deep and meaningful, and created by a great artist. Then, human nature does the rest of the heavy lifting. And voilà....chef-d'œuvre! Is it a coincidence that abstract painting is the preferred outlet for 1st year talent-lacking art students who are much better suited to a career in retail sales? Abstract is often, but of course not always, the Lady Gaga of the art world. An interesting novelty which the majority find entertaining, and bend over backwards to celebrate, adore, and find deep meaning within. Most especially those who have never held a brush.

      It's funny that you say that. I mean I am fascinated by Velazquez, specifically Las Meninas and his portraits of the Spanish Royal Family, but you don't get the point. As soon as photography was invented, exact representations of the human figure were easy to come by, rendering painting near obsolete and driving prices up. However, abstract painting came along. It conveyed emotions, scenes from nature, mythology, even portraits. The fact that art didn't have to be exact allowed for new kinds of represenations of beauty and color. Art is so much more than an exact picture, it captures the feel of something. And this is what Rothko and his contemporaries in various movements were still able to do.

    It was constantly evolving and cost nothing . The other problem was when the landlord decorated it was lost forever . Or was it ....

    I love how goofy-looking he was. Ted Cruz on downers. This is one of his best not featuring the color red. Perhaps his very best. (Honest review. Will probably be removed for honesty). Seriously though, it's a gorgeous painting. Just look at it.
