5.0 out of 5 stars Small-scale Rothko, January 23, 2009
By 
Claude Reich (Florianopolis, Brazil and Paris, France) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is a reprint of the catalogue for a 1984 exhibition which focused on a seldom studied aspect of Rothko's work: his works on paper (acrylic, tempera, watercolor, oil, pen and ink). Very complete, full of marvelous illustrations, it starts with a short introduction by Dore Ashton (who gives an intimate look into the work and thought of an artist she personally knew)and then studies Rothko's works on paper in a chronological and very complete essay written by curator Bonnie Clearwater. All the plates are in color and, to my knowledge, very close to the originals.
