Mark Rothko Artworks

“The first time I visited the Rothko room at the Tate Modern was a transformative experience. So immersive and powerful, looking at the paintings felt like melting into them. From the Tate website:‘This kind of design may look simple,’ Rothko remarked about his paintings, ‘but it usually takes me many hours to get the proportions and colours just right. Everything has to lock together. I guess I am pretty much a plumber at heart.’”
