    1st printing.

    Written by Francesco Matteuzzi. Art and cover byGiovanni Scarduelli.

    Mark Rothko's work is among the most recognizable in modern art history. His huge color-field works enjoy enormous popularity for their luminosity, moodiness, and immersive qualities. But he didn't always paint in bold, simple swaths of color.

    This graphic biography traces Rothko's entire life, from his boyhood emigration from Russia to America, to his suicide in 1970. While Rothko the artist was largely misunderstood during his lifetime, this unique graphic biography offers a way of making sense of his life and of decoding the visual language he invented.

    Hardcover, 128 pages, full color.

    Cover price $24.95.
