2017 Rothko Wall Calendar
Mark Rothko (American, b. Russia, 19031970), a titan among modern painters, said that the subject matter of his paintings was the range of human emotion. His extraordinary achievement was the communication of tragedy and elation through forms reduced to starkest simplicityoftentimes a pair of rectangles. Born Marcus Rothkowitz in a Latvian Jewish community, the artist emigrated to the United States at the age of ten. He established himself as a leader among New Yorks artistic avant-garde in the late 1940s and was central to the development of postwar abstract painting in the United States.
