What's your point - don't hide behind your little toadstool of flipping.
If you have any balls, which I doubt, explain your point of view.
You are on a Rothko thread, started by a long-time member sharing some art love (while acknowledging the desire to add some positivity to the forum), with lots of positive reaction, and you are here to throw some childish bile around?
All good. Your lack of intelligence obvious. Did you get under my skin? No, my ex-wife is a daily tortuous pain and responding to imbeciles like yourself is always a satisfying way to vent. I thank you for allowing that opportunity today.

They are quite overwhelming in person. I tend to gravitate towards the darker tones of his later pieces, they are quite ominous now that we know that his mind was slipping.

Spent a couple of hours there about two years ago. Had the place to myself most of the time. One of the most spiritual experiences I've ever had.....

I have plenty big balls and have been a member on here a lot longer than you have big boy. Quite willing to meet up to measure my balls and intelligence against yours.

Mark Rothko 🇱🇻 Abstract Painting • Art For Sale, by Deleted on Nov 7, 2015 11:17:41 GMT 1, Apologies Cardiff, I replied with a genuine response albeit negative against rothko but it's a forum and there won't be much discussion if everyone just likes everything. I then made a joke remark hence the smiley face, but unfortunately some people are just looking to argue and others just kiss ass liking posts rather than respond.
Yes this forum has changed, hence why I rarely post and take long breaks from it. certain people are holier than thou and have large sticks up their arse.
Take away the for sale section and the announcements of upcoming releases and you'll have a dozen users.
All the flipper outing is very boring. who cares, It happens get on with life. go cry to mummy, someone got there first.
Half the prints being released wouldn't sell out if you took potential financial gain out of it.
I don't flip, have sold about 4 prints in as many years or more, but if banksy has a crap print out next week i'll buy it to flip. I have a banksy print bought at source, never liked the image but who on here can honestly say they wouldn't buy something for £450 which is potentially worth £10k+. That will help my kids and i'd do it again.. Only those who are rich or those that are idiots wouldn't do it. And why do you have portfolios of prints? if it's not going on the wall......
Apologies Cardiff for ruining your thread.

Mark Rothko 🇱🇻 Abstract Painting • Art For Sale, by Ottomatik on Nov 27, 2015 4:38:45 GMT 1, Rothko is one of my favorites!
His piece at MCATT in Chicago is the only painting that I've ever seen that has actually made me shed a tear.
(Who knows?)
Anyhoo, can someone please post some photos from the show?
We went to VMFA last week and I took some photos of his piece we have here in VA.

Mark Rothko 🇱🇻 Abstract Painting • Art For Sale, by rkitek on Nov 27, 2015 17:14:50 GMT 1, Cardiff - great idea got a topic of conversation. I saw a play in LA a few years ago called "Red" with Alfred Molina as Mark Rothko (who was a Russian Jewish immigrant) that was pretty fascinating. One of his central ideas was that the spectator must collaborate with the work - which, according to the play is not required to the same degree by representational painting. The play is set in his New York studio in the late 1950s and deals with the angst he goes through in rationalizing having accepted a commission to paint a series of abstract murals for the Four Seasons restaurant in the Seagram Building as it contradicts his belief he is above pure commercialism. Ultimately he abandoned the project, returned the money and kept the work. I know that at least some, if not all of them, ended up at the Tate.

Mark Rothko 🇱🇻 Abstract Painting • Art For Sale, by Black Apple Art on Nov 27, 2015 21:09:35 GMT 1, Not a big fan either and when I saw the large exhibit at the tate this year on my Dismaland trip, they still just didn't do much for me. That said the piece below was my favorite.
I believe there is also something inherent in literally anything being in a "coveted" massive space with 50 ft ceilings and white walls that may lend the illusion of it being something special with some powerful underlying meaning. Not saying this about Rothko in particular but there really is an undeniable suggestive power being at any major museum that most everything there should be important and meaningful to you because it is to others. I believe expressing one's true view should always be encouraged regardless if they are going with the majority or not. I did find the Richter exhibit fantastic there and a fan of Richter or not I highly recommend the below documentary which actually shows him in his studio creating his works and painfully obsessing over them until he deems them finished.
