- Mark Rothko’s (b. 1903, Russia; d. 1970, New York) paintings are vast fields of color that radiate from immense, life-size canvases. They are among those most frequently sought out works by MOCA visitors, and a cornerstone of the museum's collection. Noted for their material complexity-an unconventional paint mixture which includes eggs and glues, layered upon fabric canvases studiously constructed to avoid physical traces of pressure-they are particularly sensitive to light. Go behind the scenes with conservator Tatyana Thompson as she prepares MOCA's collection of thirteen Rothko paintings for exhibition, and preserves their greatness for future generations.

I was sad to see the Rothkos weren't on exhibit the last time I went to MOCA, but I figured it was for just this kind of reason. Looking forward to their return. I can't get enough of that magical room.

AMAZING WORK OF ART
get your eyes tested
insane in the brain it s trash it s paint pooped on canvas
I can't believe a single museum has 13 Rothkos. And from what I can see, these aren't minor Rothkos either.
nice i love this art in downtown LA i have been there at least 3 times to see them
EMOTIONALY GENUIS....
00:24-00:34 - fantastic reveal
what about lights which only switch on, if someone enters the room and switch off when the person leaves the room?
Grande artista o Mark Rothko.
i dont wont to be disrespectful , i know nothing about art, but what the hell do you see in this paintings that is so extraordinary?Just read that one of his paintings was sold for 45 mil.what if i got myself a paintbrush and just did a 2 color square painting,what would be different?I am asking out of real curiosity not trying to be a smart ass.
vagvll usually because art collectors are interested in collecting these type of paintings. and for a rothko painting art collectors would be in a room betting on it and once people stopped betting on it the winner would get the painting which explains why the artwork sells to a high price because the one that could bet the most money won.
vagvll Actually the production of these works is more complex than you make out - it is not simply a matter of slapping two colours on a piece of canvas. If you view the works in person you will see that they consist of multiple layers of colour - thinned down, and applied more like watercolour.
The reason people like rothkos is because they are told to like him. Expensive Art is a popularity contest in most cases it has little to do with artistic talent. If a artist is trendy enough their art will be more expensive. artists like the true old school masters were basically judged on their ability to draw paint and sculpt realism which is very easy to judge talent wise. Abstract art cannot be judged subjectively is very trend based value wise. Just because rothkos are expensive doesn't give them any artistic value technically. Anyone who tries to explain why rothkos are masterpieces cannot a will not be able to tell you anything relevant, and will eventually just get mad and tell you to shut up.
+Abstract Art Channel All I have to say is... Try to do a photo realistic portrait by sight only. You will lose a lot of respect for Rothko and those like him.
+Abstract Art Channel Oh and you should proof read you comments.
Hater gonna hate
the way he feathers in the red square to the brown square is genius said my 3 year old toddler
And these are great artworks?
My kid can do this!
you re right my dog pooped nice things
I can do what he did... just painting colors.. done!
Then do it and shut the fuck up :)
you re so right
can doing and doing it is a huge different. i suggest to try first, then ask for opinions, then compare and finally learn how hard it is. even if you would have painted it it would be to late. only the first gets the gold .
The thing is you did not pour your soul making it
It's not just smacking paint. Lol it has different mixtures, viscosity, opacity, etc.
I wouldn't have 1 for free
I would in a heartbeat.
You get your wish and it's free!
Ipads are shit for photography
art hahahaha
a big lie to steal money lol
Money laundering !
who shit likes has to be themselves shit to appreciate this
rothko is trash a child with age 4 does it better and more Original
Fuck off, you know shit!
you are shit
FaCu aRroYo ou yourself are shit that s why you like shit trash
you are an ignorant about art.....pity on you....study about art more please,,,,please....
are you so stupid ? 2 colours paints with drips in the paint you call art
It's funny how art "experts" think that this is good art. The only reason they consider these to be masterpieces is because it is trendy to do so. They try to give long complicated explainations on why Rothko is a "genius" which make no sense to anyone. ANYONE who says they understand what Rothko was trying portray in his paintings is a liar. Even Rothko couldn't give you a relevant explainations of to why his work is a "masterpiece". If you showed the true masters a piece by rothko they would laugh and throw it away. Artistic Talent is not painting giant rectangles. Just because art has monetary value doesn't automatically give it artistic value. I have an awesome portrait that isn't worth much to anyone but me, which shows literally a million times more artistic ability than any Rothko. Actually I've seen some children's paintings with a lot more artistic value. Most of the "experts" in art are those who don't have the talent to be artist themselves.
+kawakami789 totally agree with you

Haha, you're under the illusion that 'art' needs to have a subject to be considered 'art.' A lot more artistic skill goes into Rothko's, or an abstract artist's, work than you think it does and to emphasize that fact, I doubt that you could personally replicate a Rothko or be able to create a completely original abstract work at your current artistic level . I'm not going to ponder on because I doubt you would care or understand but from what I see here, you basically don't understand abstract art.
ok,so better picture means lower price.i got it..i see here just 3 collors threre is no ponit of the picture,u fucking need to see doctor.
I'm not going to argue with someone who can't even spell, let alone understand art, haha.
as u can see i am not from some country where English is main languange,i bet u dont speak 2 languanges,i can ;) and this is not art this is kids work haha
Eso no es arte 👎
