内容简介

马克·罗斯科(1903-1970)，世界著名的抽象表现主义的象征，在他的儿子写的对他的艺术和生活的完全原始的检查中被重新发现。

他的两个孩子中较年轻的克里斯托弗综合了严谨的批评和个人轶事，提供了一个独特的视角来观察这位现代大师。

克里斯托弗·罗斯科利用对艺术作品的熟悉知识来呈现十八篇文章，仔细观察绘画，探索他们通过形式、颜色和规模在观众和艺术家之间建立深刻联系的方式。

休斯顿的罗斯科教堂(Rothko Chapel)和纽约的西格拉姆(Seagram)建筑壁画的杰出委托，以及罗斯科作品中许多不太为人所知、被低估的方面，都得到了延长治疗，包括重新评估他的晚期深色油画和大量纸上作品。

作者还讨论了艺术家在20世纪30年代和40年代的作品，音乐对艺术家的意义，以及我们在当代与视觉抽象的持久斗争。

最后，克里斯托弗·罗斯科(Christopher Rothko)动情地描述了他作为艺术家儿子的角色，他与父亲的共同点，以及他们在作者童年时期形成的关系。

Mark Rothko (1903–1970), world-renowned icon of Abstract Expressionism, is rediscovered in this wholly original examination of his art and life written by his son. Synthesizing rigorous critique with personal anecdotes, Christopher, the younger of the artist’s two children, offers a unique perspective on this modern master.

Christopher Rothko draws on an intimate knowledge of the artworks to present eighteen essays that look closely at the paintings and explore the ways in which they foster a profound connection between viewer and artist through form, color, and scale. The prominent commissions for the Rothko Chapel in Houston and the Seagram Building murals in New York receive extended treatment, as do many of the lesser-known and underappreciated aspects of Rothko’s oeuvre, including reassessments of his late dark canvases and his formidable body of works on paper. The author also discusses the artist’s writings of the 1930s and 1940s, the significance of music to the artist, and our enduring struggles with visual abstraction in the contemporary era. Finally, Christopher Rothko writes movingly about his role as the artist’s son, his commonalities with his father, and the terms of the relationship they forged during the writer’s childhood.
