基本信息

馬克·羅斯科（1903-1970）反對詮釋或分類，他是藝術家完美表達自由的杰出倡導者。雖然被認為是抽象表現主義運動的主要主角，首先在紐約市成立，羅斯科拒絕標簽，而是堅持“一個完美的經驗之間的圖片和旁觀者”
在一系列的具象作品之后，羅斯科用紅色、黃色、赭色、栗色、黑色或綠色的大膽色塊創作了他現在的標志性油畫。隨著這些閃爍的，跳動的色塊，羅斯科強調說，他并沒有刪除人形，而是把符號或形狀放在它的位置。這些強烈的色彩形式包含了人類處境的所有悲劇。同時，羅斯科明確地賦予了觀眾作品的表現力。他相信“一幅圖畫是靠陪伴而存在的，在敏感的觀察者眼中，它不斷膨脹，不斷加快。”
從他早期的發展到他最著名的色彩領域，這本書介紹了羅斯科的戲劇，親密和革命性的工作的智力和影響。

Resisting interpretation or classification, Mark Rothko (1903–1970) was a prominent advocate for the artist’s consummate freedom of expression. Although identified as a key protagonist of the Abstract Expressionist movement, first formed in New York City, Rothko rejected the label and insisted instead on “a consummated experience between picture and onlooker.”

Following a repertoire of figurative works, Rothko developed his now iconic canvases of bold color blocks in red, yellow, ochre, maroon, black, or green. With these shimmering, pulsating color masses, Rothko stressed that he had not removed the human figure but rather put symbols or shapes in its place. These intense color forms contained all the tragedy of the human condition. At the same time, Rothko explicitly empowered the viewer in the expressive potential of his work. He believed “A picture lives by companionship, expanding and quickening in the eyes of the sensitive observer.”

From his early development through to his most famous color fields, this book introduces the intellect and influence of Rothko’s dramatic, intimate, and revolutionary work.
