About the Item

Mark Rothko at Museo d'Arte Moderna Ca' Pesaro, Venezia, 1970 Offset lithograph Numbered in pencil 250/500 in the lower left front, not signed Frame Included: elegantly floated and framed in a museum quality white washed wood frame with UV plexiglass This dazzling offset lithograph was published on the occasion of Mark Rothko's exhibition at the Museo d'Arte Moderna Ca' Pesaro Venezia (Venice, Italy) from June to October 1970. This was the first Memorial exhibition done after Mark Rothko took his life months earlier on February 25, 1970. This exhibition had almost 30 paintings shown in the Museo d'Arte Moderna Ca' Pesaro, in conjunction with the 35th Venice Biennale. While this lithograph is technically a poster, it is printed on fine art paper that is thicker and of so much higher quality than what is seen today; the European, 1970s craftsmanship is evident, and worthy of a major Museum retrospective of the era. Below is an excerpt of a contemporaneous New York Times review of the exhibition: " One would have perhaps thought that the elemental pictorial vocabulary and palette of Rothko would have sorely clashed with the opulent background of Venetian splendor. Instead, his glowing luminous rectangles superimposed on other glowing luminous rectangles were at one with their surroundings, resonating formal currents and countercurrents with them." - David L. Shirey, The New York Times (November 21, 1970) Measurements: Frame: 42.75 x 29 x 2 inches Print: 39 x 25 inches Publisher: Museo d'Arte Moderna Ca' Pesaro, Venezia
