"Art is an adventure into an unknown world, which can be explored only by those willing to take risks"
-Mark Rothko and Adolph Gotllieb manifesto, published in 1943 in the New York Times.
Anyone who knows me knows, my favorite artist is Mark Rothko. But it always seems to me that he gets overshadowed by other artist in the late 20th century or simply no one knows who he is. This Blog is meant to correct fix that.

Mark Rothko: The Realist Years
Oct 31, 2001 - Jan 5, 2002
“Approximately forty of Mark Rothko’s rarely exhibited Depression-era urban scenes, still lifes and nudes from the 1930s and 1940s will be on view at PaceWildenstein (32 East 57th Street in New York City) from October 31, 2001 through January 5, 2002. Selected from the artist’s estate and public as well as private collections, this exhibition provides the first occasion to view Rothko’s contribution to early American modernism as a precursor to his unprecedented transition into abstraction.”
