简介

这是一部具有里程碑意义的重量级专著，以前所未有的规模全面呈现了马克·罗斯科（Mark Rothko，1903-1970）的整个艺术生涯。本书与罗斯科家族紧密合作出版，收录了来自各大知名收藏机构的经典作品以及从未公开过的画布与纸上作品。作为纽约画派的先驱和抽象表现主义的重要人物，罗斯科的艺术理念认为绘画是一种深刻的心理与精神体验，能够传达人类最基本的情感。全书以超过275幅图像展现了罗斯科各个时期的创作——从早期的具象和超现实主义作品，到令人着迷的大尺度色域绘画，再到他晚期以更克制的调色板创作的光辉之作以及最后的黑灰色系列。本书首次以拉页形式呈现了罗斯科教堂（休斯顿）和菲利普斯收藏馆（华盛顿）的经典作品。罗斯科的子女凯特·罗斯科·普里泽尔和克里斯托弗·罗斯科凭借对作品和艺术家生活的深入了解，在艺术史语境中为父亲描绘出一幅更完整、更客观的肖像，并在必要时融入私人记忆以作补充。亚历山大·内梅罗夫和杉本博司则提供了对艺术家作品的深刻反思。

A landmark monograph on an unprecedented scale that allows all aspects of Mark Rothko's career to be heard in full voice, published in close collaboration with the artist's family and featuring beloved works from major collections as well as never-before-seen canvases and paintings on paper. Deluxe and comprehensive, this revelatory volume examines the brilliance of Mark Rothko (1903–1970), a pioneer of the New York School and major figure in the Abstract Expressionist movement. Illustrated with more than 275 images that explore his paintings, prints, and works on paper, this book highlights the best-known and also lesser-known works by Rothko—from his early figurative and Surrealist works to his mesmerizing color-field paintings of immense scale to the more restricted palette of his luminous later works and his final series of black-and-gray paintings. Among Rothko's artistic philosophies, he held that painting was a deeply psychological and spiritual experience through which basic human emotions could be communicated. This is the first book to include foldouts that highlight works from the Rothko Chapel in Houston and the Rothko Room at the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C. Kate Rothko Prizel and Christopher Rothko draw on intimate knowledge of the artworks and the artist's life to give a fuller picture of their father and place him within the context of art history; they endeavor to give an impartial portrait—the man and his work—while introducing personal details where they can enlighten. Alexander Nemerov and Hiroshi Sugimoto provide reflections about the artist's work.
