Mark Rothko Born Marcus Rothkowitz, 25 September 1903 - Russia, died 25 February 1970 - New York, USA Marcus Rothkowitz was born to Jewish parents in Czarist Russia on September 25, 1903 in Dvinsk. His father emigrated to America when he was ten. Having decided to become an artist, he started out painting representational pictures in the Expressionist manner, rendering the drama of contemporary existence in a faceless metropolis. His art then grew freer, in Surrealist-influenced compositions that focus on mythic and biomorphic figures. Finally, in the years between 1949 and his suicide in 1970, he jettisoned representational art altogether and worked solely on the luminous fields – mostly in red and black - for which he became famous. He spoke four languages- Russian, Yiddish, Hebrew, and English, and experienced many cultures which greatly enriched his art. Dvinsk was a solidly working-class, largely Jewish town of about 100,000. In response to the massive growth in revolutionary ideas, the Czarist authorities bloodily repressed workers – especially Jews – and attacked demonstrations, jailed militants and carried out pogroms.

Die Shattuck Elementary School und ab Herbst 1918 bis Juni 1921 die Lincoln High bereiteten den Jungen aufs College vor. Dank Intelligenz und Fleiss erhielt er ein Stipendium für Yale, das ihm jedoch nach Ablauf des ersten Studienjahres gestrichen wurde. Zu den von ihm belegten Fächern gehörten Allgemeine Psychologie und Geschichte der Philosophie. Im Frühling 1923 gründete Rothkowitz mit zwei Kollegen die progressive Untergrundzeitung Yale Saturday Evening Pest . Nach ihm selben Herbst verliess er Yale ohne Abschluss und ging nach New York.

Dort sei er zum ersten Mal mit der Welt der Farbe und der künstlerischen Gestaltung in Berührung gekommen, sagte Rothko später dazu. Theater und Musik nahmen fortan einen wichtigen Platz in seinem Leben ein.

ROTHKO, MARK ROTHKO, MARK The Graphic Bible . Rothko also supported himself by teaching art to children at the Brooklyn Jewish Center, a position he held from 1929 until 1952. He found success early with expressionistic, painterly, representational canvases, shown in his first group exhibition at the Opportunity Galleries (1928) and his first one-man show at the Contemporary Arts Gallery (1933), both in New York. As a member of The Ten, an artist-group that he co-founded in 1935 with and , and affiliated with for five years, Rothko exhibited imagery stimulated by aspects of mythology, and at times Christian iconography, such as the crucifixion.
