Rothko's rooms

Chronicles Rothko's life, charting the development of his work, which fills the screen with his softly defined, rectangular clouds of color stacked symmetrically on top of one another. Conceived to evoke elemental emotions and maximum poignancy. The focus is on Rothko's demands for the perfect setting for the showing of his work, an ideal he pursued throughout his creative life, typified by the story of his iconic Seagram murals, nine of which now hang in a dedicated room at London's newly-opened Tate Modern.

  • "Documentaire. Présente la vie et l'oeuvre de Mark Rothko, peintre américain d'origine russe dont la carrière fût à son apogée dans les année 40 et 50. Peintre de l'abstraction, dans ses toiles de dimension gigantesque, il s'exprime par des formes rectangulaires aux contours flous, utilisant parfois le monochrome, parfois des couleurs étincelantes. Il cherche ainsi à développer le sens du sublime, et vise à atteindre une dimension spirituelle chez le spectateur."
