Rust, Blacks on Plum 1962 - Art Prints
100 Rs
A prominent figure among the New York School painters, Mark Rothko moved through many artistic styles until reaching his signature 1950s motif of soft, rectangular forms floating on a stained field of color.
Although Rothko himself refused to adhere to any art movement, he is generally identified as an abstract expressionist. Heavily influenced by mythology and philosophy, he was insistent that his art was filled with content and brimming with ideas.

About Rust, Blacks on Plum 1962
It was the kind of request that might have softened Rothko, who liked to put prospective buyers through tests they didn’t know they were taking. Glimcher recalls one studio visit where he caught a glimpse of a beautiful, imposing painting of dark blue and black rectangles floating over a burgundy field. After he confessed to Rothko how much he loved the work, the painter told him that he’d picked it out for a collector who took one look and asked for a happy painting instead — ‘a pink and red and yellow and orange painting, a joyous painting.’ Rust, Blacks on Plum draws its radiance from an almost imperceptible shimmering within and between the darker rectangles About the Art Prints
