Despite Rothko‚Äôs prominence, few people know that he also created more than 1,000 paintings on paper over the course of his career. The artist viewed these not as preliminary studies but as finished paintings in their own right.\u003cbr\u003e ¬†\u003cbr\u003e These remarkable paintings range from early figurative subjects and surrealist works to the soft-edged rectangular fields, often realized at monumental scale, for which Rothko is best known. These works challenge our expectations about how painting is defined, as well as popular ideas about Rothko and his career. In this beautifully illustrated volume, Adam Greenhalgh traces the role these works played in the artist‚Äôs reception, reputation, and success.\u003cbr\u003e ¬†\u003cbr\u003e This book accompanies the first major exhibition dedicated to Rothko‚Äôs works on paper in forty years and brings together nearly one hundred radiant, rarely displayed examples. Building on the important research conducted by Greenhalgh and his team for the catalogue raisonn√© of Rothko‚Äôs works on paper, this important catalogue offers a new appreciation of an underrecognized facet of the artist‚Äôs practice.\u003cbr\u003e ¬†\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEXHIBITION SCHEDULE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ¬†\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNational Gallery of Art, Washington \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (November 19, 2023‚ÄìMarch 31, 2024)\u003cbr\u003e ¬†\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design, Oslo\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (May 16‚ÄìSeptember 22, 2024)\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN13: 9780300266474\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumber of Pages: 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEdition: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication City, Country: United States\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions (cm): 27.9(H)x22.2(L)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight (gm): \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdam Greenhalgh\u003c\/b\u003e is associate curator at the National Gallery of Art and lead author of the online catalogue raisonn√© of Rothko‚Äôs works on paper published by the National Gallery of Art.\u003ch4\u003eReviews\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Adam Greenhalgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46609240522969,"sku":"9780300266474","price":72.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0502\/9530\/8441\/files\/51ylhjgMrmL._SL1000.jpg?v=1779023483","url":"https:\/\/www.arielbooks.com.au\/products\/mark-rothko-paintings-on-paper-9780300266474","provider":"Ariel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
