ReplyDelete1- Mark Rothko, one of the greatest painters of the twentieth century, was born in Daugavpils, Latvia in 1903. In 1921 he move to New York. Rothko took classes at the Art Students League and was briefly a student of Jewish-American painter Max Weber, but he was mostly a self-taught painter. During his early years, he painted different scenes of the New York subway, like Entrance to the Subway (1938), that dealt with feelings of alienation in city life.
ReplyDeleteThroughout the 1940s, Rothko created Surrealist images dominated by amorphous shapes; for example, Primeval Landscape (1945) and Tentacles of Memory (1946). Towards the end of the 1940s, Rothko began transitioning toward entirely abstract painting. His initial abstract paintings, collectively known as ‘Multiforms,’ were composites of colorful free form shapes.
Rothko committed suicide on February 25th, 1970. He failed to see the completion of the chapel in 1971, which was named The Rothko Chapel in his honor.
2- Pop art is one of the most popular art movements of the modern world and is used in fields like advertising, cultural objects and comic books.
The father of Pop Art is without doubt Andy Warhol, his method of changing colour, design and isolating graphics was simply genius. He utilised artists to work with him, supporting his styles and reproducing his ideas into promotional printings and merchandise.
Andrew Warhola (Andy Warhol) is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and the central figure of the American Pop Art movement.
When he graduated from college with his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1949, Warhol moved to New York City to pursue a career as a commercial artist. It was also at this time that he dropped the "a" at the end of his last name to become Andy Warhol. He landed a job with Glamour magazine in September, and went on to become one of the most successful commercial artists of the 1950s. He won frequent awards for his uniquely whimsical style, using his own blotted line technique and rubber stamps to create his drawings.

ReplyDelete1. Mark Rothko is a key figure in Abstract Expressionism, best known for his large color field paintings like No.61 (Rust and Blue) (1953). Born Markus Rothkowitz in Dvinsk, Russian Empire (now Latvia) in 1903, Rothko and his family immigrated to the United States in 1913. He began his undergraduate studies at Yale University in 1921 but left two years later to move to New York. Rothko took classes at the Art Students League and was briefly a student of Jewish-American painter Max Weber, but he was mostly a self-taught painter. During his early years, he painted different scenes of the New York subway, like Entrance to the Subway (1938), that dealt with feelings of alienation in city life. Rothko also co-founded the art group The Ten in 1935, whose members included artists William de Kooning, Ilya Bolotowsky, William Baziotes, and Adolph Gottlieb. Members of The Ten rejected realist painting, which in its different forms dominated the American cultural landscape of the time.
ReplyDelete2. Pop art is an art movement that emerged in the United Kingdom and the United States during the mid- to late-1950s.The movement presented a challenge to traditions of fine art by including imagery from popular and mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane mass-produced objects. One of its aims is to use images of popular (as opposed to elitist) culture in art, emphasizing the banal or kitschy elements of any culture, most often through the use of irony.It is also associated with the artists' use of mechanical means of reproduction or rendering techniques. In pop art, material is sometimes visually removed from its known context, isolated, or combined with unrelated material.

One of the preeminent artists of his generation, Mark Rothko is closely identified with the New York school, a circle of painters that emerged during the 1940s as a new collective voice in American art. During a career that spanned five decades, he created a new and impassioned form of abstract painting.
ReplyDeleteRothko's work is characterized by rigorous attention to formal elements such as color, shape, balance, depth, composition, and scale; yet, he refused to consider his paintings solely in these terms. He explained: "It is a widely accepted notion among painters that it does not matter what one paints as long as it is well painted. This is the essence of academicism. There is no such thing as good painting about nothing."
By 1949 Rothko had introduced a compositional format that he would continue to develop throughout his career. Composed of several vertically aligned rectangular forms set within a colored field, Rothko's "image" lent itself to a remarkable diversity of appearances.
In these works, large scale, open structure, and thin layers of color combine to convey the impression of a shallow pictorial space. Color, for which Rothko's work is perhaps most celebrated, here attains an unprecedented luminosity.
His classic paintings of the 1950s are characterized by expanding dimensions and an increasingly simplified use of form, brilliant hues, and broad, thin washes of color. In his large, floating rectangles of color, which seem to engulf the spectator, he explored with a rare mastery of nuance the expressive potential of color contrasts and modulations.
Alternately radiant and dark, Rothko's art is distinguished by a rare degree of sustained concentration on pure pictorial properties such as color, surface, proportion, and scale, accompanied by the conviction that those elements could disclose the presence of a high philosophical truth. Visual elements such as luminosity, darkness, broad space, and the contrast of colors have been linked, by the artist himself as well as other commentators, to profound themes such as tragedy, ecstasy, and the sublime. Rothko, however, generally avoided explaining the content of his work, believing that the abstract image could directly represent the fundamental nature of "human drama."
2. Pop Art emerged as an art movement during the 1950s in America and Britain and peaked in the 1960s. The movement was inspired by popular and commercial culture in the western world and began as a rebellion against traditional forms of art.
Pop artists felt that the art exhibited in museums or taught at schools did not represent the real world, and so looked to contemporary mass culture for inspiration instead. At the height of its heyday, Pop Art was often heralded as ‘anti-art’ for refusing to abide by contemporary art standards at the time.
Andy Warhol, David Hockney, Richard Hamilton and Roy Lichtenstein are among those viewed as the original Pop Artists.
Richard Hamilton has often been labelled the founding father of British Pop Art for outlining the aims and ideals of the movement as listed above. Hamilton believed that art wasn’t just for galleries and exhibitions, but a way of life. He thus contributed to making art mainstream and not just for private exhibitions.
Andy Warhol, perhaps a more widely referenced proponent of the movement, used his own celebrity status to spread Pop Art to other artistic spheres, especially film. In fact, he is often seen as the forefather of Independent Film.

ReplyDelete1)Mark Rothko (real name Markus Yakovlevich Rotkovich; September 25, 1903, Dvinsk, Vitebsk province (now Daugavpils, Latvia) - February 25, 1970, New York) is an American artist from a family of Russian Jews. Included in the "holy trinity" of abstract expressionism (together with Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning). Despite the phenomenal demand already during his lifetime, he was tortured by depression, addiction to tobacco and alcohol. At the peak of his career, he opened his veins, taking an exorbitant dose of antidepressants for fidelity. Known as one of the trendsetters of color field painting.
Features of the work of the artist Mark Rothko: starting with a relatively traditional painting, under the influence of European surrealists, he was carried away by the creation of abstract scenes inspired by ancient Greek myths. Over time, he finally moved away from object forms, focusing on color and its capabilities in conveying emotions on canvas and direct impact on the viewer. By the beginning of the 1950s, he finally found the signature handwriting: torn rectangular shapes on a colored field. The works began to be rapidly in high demand, bringing Rothko to the top ten highest paid artists of his time.
Famous paintings by Mark Rothko: "Orange, red, yellow", "Red on burgundy", "Metro entrance", "White center (yellow, pink and lavender on red)", "No. 10", "No. 61 (Rusty and blue)".

ReplyDeleteMark Rothko - together with Jackson Pollock and Barnett Newman — is one of the pillars of American abstract expressionism, a trend that appeared in the United States in the mid-twentieth century. As for the pioneers of abstractionism - Kazimir Malevich, Vasily Kandinsky or Paul Klee - for Rothko, non-objective painting was not a formalistic experiment, but an ethical choice and mystical experience.

Pop art is a style of art most popular in the 60s of the 20th century. The plots of the paintings are based on objects known to everyone: celebrities, comics, food, household items. It is characterized by bright colors, flatness, irony and lack of deep meaning.
It is believed that the pop art movement originated in London in 1952 in the community of young artists, critics, architects and writers "Independent Group" (an association whose members explored the influence of technology, mass culture and advertising on contemporary art), which included Richard Hamilton, Nigel Henderson, John McHale, Eduardo Paolozzi and William Turnbull, who then held exhibitions with the first samples of pop art. Their work had a strong influence on the subsequent development of the movement.
