3.0 out of 5 stars
Colorless Rothko,
By Claude Reich (Florianopolis, Brazil and Paris, France) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Mark Rothko: A Retrospective (Hardcover)
This book is a reprint of the catalogue for the memorable 1978 exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in NYC, which was the first large-scale Rothko retrospective to be mounted after the artist's death. As such, the text, written by an authority on post-war American art (Diane Waldman)has become a classic and the short contribution by writer Bernard Malamud recalling his friendship with the artist is a moving piece of literature.
Unfortunately, out of 275 illustrations, only about a third are in color (practically all of the early works are reproduced in black and white), which is rather frustrating to a Rothko lover. Therefore, only three stars to this book...

This review is from: Mark Rothko: A Retrospective (Hardcover)
Very nice monograph on Rothko. Good samples of his watercolor works on paper. Binding and paper are top quality. Good investment for the price.
