The story happened in Rothko's painting studio. American painter Mark Rothko was an abstract expressionist. he was eloquent, keen on dispute with other artists on Art. and used to pain and suffering because of his aggressive and ambitious personality. thus he always felt himself was in competition with other artists, whoever living or dead. Rothko said that his work was about the expression of human emotions with the means of colour. “I’m not an abstractionist. I’m not interested in the relationship of colour or form or anything else. I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions: tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on … The fact that people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures shows that I can communicate those basic human emotions … ”
In this play, Rothko always argued with a young artist who was employed as a craft assistant in his studio. the way they think about art and explain something reality to themselves had exposed the significant aspects of Art industry. I don't really know too much about the artist. but I am rather concerned about artists' social life differed in many interesting points from the normal people's social life. how could they balance advantages of chase their dreams or their business? how could they suffer from the failure and keep on being paranoid insistence?
Tis is a very traditional Donmar style performance.
