it is impossible to watch a movie. every night i think i want to watch a movie. no movie gets watched. because it's not possible

[mousidy]

and yet they keep making movies with the hopes that one day humanity will discover a way to watch them. it's so inspiring

Mark Rothko The Drawings of 1962 Wove paper. all approx. 11 1/16 x 8 9/16 in. (28.1 x 21.7 cm) Mixed media (Pencil, Ink, Watercolor and Wash) All Gifts of The Mark Rothko Foundation, Inc., © Kate Rothko Prizel and Christopher Rothko

We don't see many late drawings from Rothko, there's one in '56 and some that are studies for mural projects, but for some reason, in 1962 we have this nice group of works on paper. What the intention of then was, no one knows for sure.

In 1962 Rothko was working on the Harvard Murals, but these drawings don't really resemble that work and only the 3rd drawing, in pencil. seems more like it might have been a sketch.

But it's still a little funny. The Seagram and Harvard mural sketches are cementing shapes that Rothko wasn't known the use. After all the stacked rectangle forms Rothko had painted by 1962, why sketch a single one out in pencil?

In seems likely to me that at least the 4 of them, in ink, were meant to stand alone, but we will probably never know.

I'm presenting them here as a set even though they are all up on the blog individually. For one thing it's nice to look at then this way, and for another these are recent scans from the NGA, which are different in small ways than what's already up. The previous scans are professional vetted scans but these new ones were probably done all at the same time and we sometimes see less yellow in the paper than we've seen before.

Enjoy these.

some hyper famous artists like Van Gogh transcend overratedness and become underrated because they're so normalized. Like I'll look at a van Gogh and I'm like wait this really is amazing you guys don't get it

Every time I see a Van Gogh that’s not one of his better known pieces it absolutely blows me away

ancient roman women whose husband keeps looking at the neighbour's boy quintus and he never looks at her that way and she can't even chainsmoke in the kitchen because they don't have marlboro blues in ancient times. and she can't even go to the club because they haven't discovered drum and bass music yet. her friend clodia's having visions of a woman named doechii but neither of them knows what that means
