MARK ROTHKO Acrylic painting Modern art 2014
Yury Ermolenko, "Mark Rothko", ( "BROTHERS IN ARMS" series ), 2014, acrylic on paper, 100x70 cm.
Mark Rothko (September 25, 1903 – February 25, 1970), was an American painter of Russian Jewish descent. Although Rothko himself refused to adhere to any art movement, he is generally identified as an abstract expressionist.
Mark Rothko sought to make paintings that would bring people to tears. “I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions—tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on,” he declared. “And the fact that a lot of people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures shows that I can communicate those basic human emotions….If you…are moved only by their color relationships, then you miss the point.”
