Was lucky enough to see him seated alone at table in MOMA's garden one day. I went over and told him I loved his paintings but was too shy to say anything else. He thanked me and I left. Have since read much about him and what I love above all is how generous he was with his money. Always asking young artists he knew if they had enough money when he met them. Surely a sensitive soul like Mark is now enjoying a wonderful next life.
Thank you very much! If you can't see them in person, you haven't really seen Rothko's paintings. This video comes very close to that experience. I think it would have been useful to go back a second time to be able to contemplate them all in the best way.
What some Italians with little culture define as a false artist because he only produces meaningless spots of color, is considered by those who have culture to be one of the great contemporary artists
