Tune in for a live Q&A with Corey on Wednesday, February 7 at 3:00 p.m. EST! He’ll be answering any questions you might have on artists, materials, and techniques. ruclips.net/video/OxS8X_V6TCU/видео.html
Could you do a longer more in-depth how-to of Rothko, as you did with Agnes Martin & de Kooning? He's such a fascinating artist and 3 minutes doesn't do him justice. Thank you.
Okay, I just want to say something. I am an art historian and an aspiring artist and I have a degree in both field (just for 'credibility' sake and saying that I am probably the person people would expect to loooooveeee art and every single art work). I just wanted to say that you don't have to like every single painting, you need to have your own view. If you like most of them, it's fine, but just because you don't like them doesn't mean that you "don't know art", it just mean that you don't like that particular work.
I always cry when I look at paintings. I am a Lit teacher but paintings make me achieve a state of pure consciousness ♥️ God bless all the Artists who allow God to create directly through them💋 Only ART can save the world
i seen the maroon one in madrid 2004. my 1st museum visit ever. never heard of rothko or any that wasnt van gogh, picasso, etc. i walked past, thought, "THIS is art?" i needed to figure out why. walked up to it abt 5 ft away. before i knew it i was 18 inches away. it began to engulf me, i started swaying and vertigo. i felt like i was in it. i had to back away before i fell into a priceless painting. i gave it another go and i was engulfed and stunned that paint has that much raw power. amazing.
The best expression of Silent! This is how I aways felt about his painting! Silent with all its richness of colors, movements and emotions. Love his painting.
I saw these paintings at the Tate and they are massive and in the gloomy light it felt very strange and gloomy to see. I not really sure what I saw but it was amazing
Some comments are a mindset that I had. Over time my level of appreciation grew to the point where i started to craft some 16x20 and they are beautiful in my mind. Thank you mister Rothko
Inthe 80s i experienced a Rothko retrospective at MoMa. I was alone in the halls and could take my time and really look without distraction. From hall to hall i began to sense I was looking at an autobiography, much like Rembrandts self portraits, I felt i was understanding his emotional life from age to age and I found myself side Lu and spontaneously weeping. I was crying in a museum. And then a smile would come to me in the next bright yellows, oranges, reds..... But in the last hall, among these enormous titans, these portals into what I felt was other worldly there hung a solitary dark black painting which may have been his last, as it ended the exhibit. It caught me by surprise and gasped I recall until I quite literally sobbed.... as if, as if I was in the presence of the death, of the leave taking of a friend. Rothko from then on has been my beloved favorite.
I’m missing an EP of this video like the ones of de Kooning, Martin, Kasuma, etc., in my life. Please make these videos a regular thing again. Please please please. I find myself rewatching these all the time.
I suffer from sleeplessness. And I always wonder what is the best thing to see before I finally gather some rest. I love your videos your voice is very calming
My parents were both artists and dragged me all the time to see these stupid boring big squares of whatever paint the guy had left over. So boring. Then, one day years later I saw a huge blue Rothko. I felt like I was falling into the color, and I saw many many different pools of color variance. It was pretty shocking. Years after that, I tried painting like this. It was far harder than I had imagined it would be, and only now do I understand why this work is so important.
Rothko - one day I will see in real life a Rothko ... And I know I will never be the same again after ... What a pure artists soul he was ... One of my favourites of all time
Rothko is an emotional thing. You either have an emotional reaction to it and love it or you feel nothing. Just because you feel nothing doesn't mean Rothko's style doesn't have meaning to those who do feel things looking at Rothko paintings.
This is as close to kinetic art as a flat work can be. The people who hate it, likely have never seen a Rothko work in person, and taken the proper time to immerse themselves in full observation of it.
You only think it's easy because Rothko has done it and it has been successful. The equivalent of how easy it is would be for you to go get a paint brush and paint the next big thing. Looking back and judging how simple something like a reverse engineer completely misunderstands how complex it was to produce this in the first place. That's like a scientist proclaiming "oh yeah i see how nature did it, pretty easy".
Why are MoMA's comment sections just nothing but people who hate modern art? Why are you on this channel? Seriously, how did you even get to this video- and why did you click on it - if you hate Rothko so much?
Wonderful video, MoMA. The "DIY Rotho" segment at the end was well done. Judging by the comments below, it's obvious Rothko either works for you or it doesn't. Love it or hate it. And, as always, the haters are quite violent, the sort of people who'd happy to slash a canvas because other people enjoy it - and they don't. I'm an artist, by the way - very traditional and completely anti-avante garde. I hate - HATE! - the sort of stuff which wins The Turner Prize. My own idols are Rembrandt and Klimt. I'm a stuffy academic painter. I do landscapes and the trees need to be painted the way I see them. I use rulers and straight lines. That said, I find Rothko's work incredibly moving. I shouldn't. He's the enemy. There's no accounting for taste - even one's own.
To appreciate a composition like this, you actually have to know things. Some people just see a wallpaper, but as I try to educate myself on the contemplation of art, I feel able to proceed to greater questions. Like why red, and why that red, which on its own, is a color and a word that tell a story. The purity of that story, and how honestly it is told by Rothko, let me admire him more and more.
I am always reminded of the organic quality of his color's interactions. For myself, it is the subconscious and the animal in nature. Great forces of instinct towards creation and destruction are at play. Human violence and peace are in direct opposition, and people become the casualties in the conflict. Rothko is an intellect of legendary importance because he used human nature as his subject. Rothko is eternal.
The same as there seem to be people who don't feel (or know the existence of) the beauty of let's say Strawinsky's music, not all people feel the beauty and depth of Rotkho's work. I feel blessed I do. His work now is exhibited in The Hague. Can't wait to see that!
I advise people to look after earlier abstract compositions from Rothko. There you see if you had doubt that he was talented and expressed deep complex feelings, and he was not just doing stanns of colors. (if you were a sceptic or hater)
I think the true power of Rothko's paintings of this nature separates the over-generalizers from those whose inclination is to find the beauty in the odd and to look for connection or tether. Frankly, it's a brilliant way to expose the ruthlessly critical, if not lazy, a-hole, while at the same time complimenting the aesthete.
Many years ago, an art gallery in Toronto paid a small fortune for a Rothko. So a newspaper in Toronto had a contest with kids doing paintings in a Rothko style. The sad truth was that for several of them, when a Rothko painting was placed among them, almost no one could tell the difference. lol
The more of these I see the more apparent it becomes that the fascinating thing about these paintings is the person justifying the painting as a good work of art, not the painting itself. Critics and lovers of this sort of art seem to be missing that what they are doing is meditating. They are focusing so hard on one item that they start to see subtleties that they interpret as profound and make up a narrative in their mind that justifies the idea that this is good art. What they miss in not realizing this is that the same effect could be achieved by staring at textured drywall, carpet, a patch of dirt or grass, etc. These paintings are not evoking responses in people because of a grand vision of the artist, they are evoking responses because some people choose to pay very close attention to them.
Hey everyone, tune in this Wednesday, May 17 at 3:30 p.m. EDT for a *LIVE* Q&A with IN THE STUDIO instructor Corey D'Augustine. Corey will answer questions from previous videos, as well as from the live comments section. Watch live: ruclips.net/video/3Q2GDI673lo/видео.html
I love this intense vibrational power of colors and the floating feeling of transparency of layers of colors and the soft mystery of the mysterious feel to the edges
I saw some of Rothkos work for the first time in the Tate when I was fifteen, and I remember audibly gasping when I saw them. Their huge scale and the richness of the colours was so gorgeous, and they had this sort of tranquil suspense (I don't know how else to describe it) that did make me feel really emotional. Yes, the concept can be seen as pretentious and a bit of bullshit, but I still love his work
i love rothkos paintings... it's a pitty that they lose so much of their greatness in videos or prints. seeing them in reality is imo the only way to enjoy them. anyway thanks for explaining his painting techniques :)
#Floating is the best # word for the beginners in Art, appreciating or painting. For the Artist, beginner or seasoned, #Staining is the next # word. #Artist applies to a painter regardless of experience level. Begin to refer to yourself as an Artist, in your private thought talks and social conversations, as this will build the energies around your self perspective and enhance the desired outcomes in the Now. Continued practice of this thought will bring the results quickly.

Love your painting tutorials .. historic-technic mixing ❤️ .. would it be possible to get a longer video about Rothko painting technic (like the ones about Picasso / Willem de Kooning) ?
I was just at the MOMA this past weekend and saw this painting, Red Brown and Black. It's huge and it's absolutely startling and very emotional to see in person. But as I stood very close to it seemed to me that Rothko did not use a varnish to coat it when he was done. The other Rothko's hanging nearby seemed similarly untreated. Is this the case? The Pollack's also seemed untreated by varnish.
Esta hablando de la tecnica de Rothko, aunque dice que Rothko si mismo nunca habló de su tecnica. Dice que son los alrededores las partes más importantes, y que usó un montón de terpentina para que la pintura tendrá transparencia y asi podia montar un imagen con muchos colores en un sitio aunque parece que es muy sencillo. Luego dice que Rothko quería q la gente lloraría enfrente de sus cuadros.
Hi- Great series. I’m curious, is the canvas you used in your demonstration primed/ gessoed or not? Is one able to achieve the same staining/ stain-painting effect as Rothko with gessoed canvas? Thanks
these painting do not move, the edges of individual segments represent how our loaded interpretations of colors interact, not how we perceive them in three dimensions.
There is so much of this type of art that there is no room for anything new in oil paint. I mean ground breaking new, a new movement like cubism or pointillism must be thrown out into the art market now so in twenty years it might catch on or be discovered by someone that had nothing to do with it.
Don, i'm afraid i agree completely. This art critic is LOST. '..forms "liberated in space.." what bulsh. We are human beings. other human beings are the correct subject matter for fine art. Yes, there are landscapes, seascapes, etc., but the best ones have people (or at least evidence of their existence, homes, boats, roads, fences). We don't have to be dead-pan realists painting our own reflections in alclad Airstream trailers. Neither do we need to demonstrate our mastery by showing the gritty detail of rust and decay on farm equipment or something. Here's art 'hell'- Rob Ross -making something up as he goes along in the studio and describing his 'patented technique' with phrases like: "..give it a little push and make a happy little cloud". Wait, i take it back, there's ONE thing i'd love to see Ross paint- (while describing it as a happy-little picture). a portrait of Obama. Beside his happy little wife. -and let HER tell him where to push his happy little paint.
I am standing in front of one of Mark Rothko's favorite patintings...Matisse's Red Studio. It's all about ambiguous spacial relationships and uses a deep, sonorous and pervasive red to allude to a real space. The painting also, informs my own work but to different ends. www.artslant.com/global/artists/show/267840-philippe-sauvie
I just seen his work in The Hague. I totally missed all these effects, sensations and emotions descriped in this video. There is not much to see really.. You might as well stare at a piece of coloured wallpaper.
I'm not going to say you don't understand art just because Rothko works for me but not for you. I'm a Rothko fan even my own painting style is traditional and realistic. Rothko should be The Enemy, someone who doesn't paint anything recognizable and does the whole "rectangle thing" over and over. He's probably like Country music or Bach - you like one or the other just because you like it, not because a lecture or website talked you into it. It was interesting to hear you'd seen his work in person and still it didn't turn into a huge revelation. That's a big Rothko cliche, that he'll make sense when you're standing in front of his work. Final score: Johan Scherft - 1; Mark Rothko - 0. :)
Busy world ...much outrageous stress....often still late in the day ( life) still coming down off the ceiling... so unwinding before art works is an item of restoration ....Rothko ...well given a bias of stress...I Would ..I believe..seeing a Rothco work.. ( and there are often I recall many images of them out and about here and there all over...).... simply float off the surface of their visual presence....rather than understand that they themselves in their images are of floating forms . Connecting....here with much deeper subtly is a reward of certain guidance . Coming to rest emotionally before the work is an invitation to fine tune inner emotional harmony till well .

Please do longer videos of these. GREAT series. its the reason im into art and Moma.
Inthe 80s i experienced a Rothko retrospective at MoMa. I was alone in the halls and could take my time and really look without distraction.

I agree with your post. The negative comments people have posted about the video just show their uneducated, insensitive ignorance.
hindsight bias
Why are MoMA's comment sections just nothing but people who hate modern art? Why are you on this channel? Seriously, how did you even get to this video- and why did you click on it - if you hate Rothko so much?

He's the enemy.
There's no accounting for taste - even one's own.
Layering stain over stain over stain doesn't move me emotionally.... for some reason. I've seen his paintings in person, and I certainly didn't cry.
To appreciate a composition like this, you actually have to know things. Some people just see a wallpaper, but as I try to educate myself on the contemplation of art, I feel able to proceed to greater questions.

I advise people to look after earlier abstract compositions from Rothko. There you see if you had doubt that he was talented and expressed deep complex feelings, and he was not just doing stanns of colors. (if you were a sceptic or hater)
You should have shown us your finished Rothko version!
I think the true power of Rothko's paintings of this nature separates the over-generalizers from those whose inclination is to find the beauty in the odd and to look for connection or tether.

Maybe one of my favorite painters ever.

Every time i see his paintings i burst into floods of tears!
Very interesting technical explanation of Rothko's techniques.
It was short..., but very interesting and informative.
Thanks a lot!
Does anyone know the name of the painting briefly in frame at 3:19?
beautiful pieces of colored rectangles, im crying
Your videos provide more educational information than my college painting classes have.
I'm addicted to the way the presenter thinks
Visual music. Interesting concept. I would like to explore this a great deal more.
i love rothkos paintings... it's a pitty that they lose so much of their greatness in videos or prints. seeing them in reality is imo the only way to enjoy them. anyway thanks for explaining his painting techniques :)

Is it possible to see more instruction...the color combinations you used, the turpentine burn for color blocks, anything more!! Please!
I didn't cry.
Beautiful work I love his art
I don't understand how you could cry in front of one of these painting
Great video. Would love to see more of the demonstration paintings you were doing in the video. Very beautiful!
Love your painting tutorials .. historic-technic mixing ❤️ .. would it be possible to get a longer video about Rothko painting technic (like the ones about Picasso / Willem de Kooning) ?
my art school does not allow turpentine in the building for fire concerns. Is there a substitute?
On behalf of brilliant Rothko:
The only way to paint like Rothko is to BE Rothko.
Goddess rest his Soul. 🕊
I have been wanting just this explainasion for awhile now.
I was just at the MOMA this past weekend and saw this painting, Red Brown and Black. It's huge and it's absolutely startling and very emotional to see in person. But as I stood very close to it seemed to me that Rothko did not use a varnish to coat it when he was done. The other Rothko's hanging nearby seemed similarly untreated. Is this the case? The Pollack's also seemed untreated by varnish.
beautiful!
what's the intro song?
Love this! Thank you.
hey i know its been 10 years but are these still ongoing?
I did cry when I saw his works at Tate modern. His other works all over the world induced other emotions.
I didn’t expect Korean subtitle here. Thanks a lot. Es utilísimo.
For the most part; the use of complimentary colors seems to be the secret to this kind of painting.
Can you paint like this w acrylic paint? Love your videos👍🙏
Esta hablando de la tecnica de Rothko, aunque dice que Rothko si mismo nunca habló de su tecnica. Dice que son los alrededores las partes más importantes, y que usó un montón de terpentina para que la pintura tendrá transparencia y asi podia montar un imagen con muchos colores en un sitio aunque parece que es muy sencillo.

Always informative.
gotta love that youtube compression algorithm
what is the name of the music?
what is the name of the song?
0:46 what's that painting in the background? :)
I know now why Rothko is famous and he is not stupid.
I wonder whether something like this could be made with water mixable oils ?
There’s a Rothko painting that looks like it was painted from the pov of being on the moon. Anyone know the name of it?
intro background song?
what piano piece is this?
Hi- Great series. I’m curious, is the canvas you used in your demonstration primed/ gessoed or not? Is one able to achieve the same staining/ stain-painting effect as Rothko with gessoed canvas? Thanks
Obvious question but are you using oils or acrylics ?
I can feel it. Amazing
did you add water to the red color?
WELL DONE WELL DONE!!!!
these painting do not move, the edges of individual segments represent how our loaded interpretations of colors interact, not how we perceive them in three dimensions.
There is so much of this type of art that there is no room for anything new in oil paint. I mean ground breaking new, a new movement like cubism or pointillism must be thrown out into the art market now so in twenty years it might catch on or be discovered by someone that had nothing to do with it.
Don, i'm afraid i agree completely. This art critic is LOST. '..forms "liberated in space.." what bulsh. We are human beings. other human beings are the correct subject matter for fine art. Yes, there are landscapes, seascapes, etc., but the best ones have people (or at least evidence of their existence, homes, boats, roads, fences). We don't have to be dead-pan realists painting our own reflections in alclad Airstream trailers. Neither do we need to demonstrate our mastery by showing the gritty detail of rust and decay on
farm equipment or something. Here's art 'hell'-
Rob Ross -making something up as he goes along in the studio and describing his 'patented technique' with phrases like: "..give it a little push and make a happy little cloud".
Wait, i take it back, there's ONE thing i'd love to see Ross paint- (while describing it as a happy-little picture). a portrait of Obama. Beside his happy little wife. -and let HER tell him where to push his happy little paint.
Beautiful 😍 thx 😊
Just saw a Rothko in the NGV Melbourne gallery. This video helped me appreciate what his art was about and I was able to enjoy it so much more.
Mouth-watering .
Wonderful demo!
Amazing art
There’s a great video essay about Rothko and how he used music on “listening in “ you tune channel you should check it out it’s really good
I am standing in front of one of Mark Rothko's favorite patintings...Matisse's Red Studio. It's all about ambiguous spacial relationships and uses a deep, sonorous and pervasive red to allude to a real space. The painting also, informs my own work but to different ends. www.artslant.com/global/artists/show/267840-philippe-sauvie
I just seen his work in The Hague. I totally missed all these effects, sensations and emotions descriped in this video. There is not much to see really.. You might as well stare at a piece of coloured wallpaper.
Johan Scherft Perhaps bring a magnifying glass next time, it may help elucidate what was missed by your strong perceptions.
I'm not going to say you don't understand art just because Rothko works for me but not for you. I'm a Rothko fan even my own painting style is traditional and realistic. Rothko should be The Enemy, someone who doesn't paint anything recognizable and does the whole "rectangle thing" over and over.
He's probably like Country music or Bach - you like one or the other just because you like it, not because a lecture or website talked you into it.
It was interesting to hear you'd seen his work in person and still it didn't turn into a huge revelation. That's a big Rothko cliche, that he'll make sense when you're standing in front of his work. Final score: Johan Scherft - 1; Mark Rothko - 0. :)
intro song?
So helpfull👌
Could you do how to paint like Hans Hoffman
More Rothko, please :)
You are s great teacher.
How to paint like Rothko: step one- become Mark Rothko. Step two- give up, and go paint like yourself.
Tehnik super❤
i don't really see why this is considered art , its just 3 rectangles.
Busy world ...much outrageous stress....often still late in the day ( life) still coming down off the ceiling... so unwinding before art works is an item of restoration ....Rothko ...well given a bias of stress...I Would ..I believe..seeing a Rothco work.. ( and there are often I recall many images of them out and about here and there all over...).... simply float off the surface of their visual presence....rather than understand that they themselves in their images are of floating forms . Connecting....here with much deeper subtly is a reward of certain guidance . Coming to rest emotionally before the work is an invitation to fine tune inner emotional harmony till well .
wow... whats weird is when i saw a rothko painting in real life.. i cried for minutes ... people were staring at me ..ahaha
Very nice 👍💜🎵🍃
I'm not on here to mock, the turpentine added to create like a thin watercolour wash is very inspiring.. experimental..
