Mark Rothko's Subway Scene

The Mark Roscoe subway scene "Metro Scene" (1938) was drawn by Mark Roscoe in the subway station. There are two pillars in front of the picture, behind which there is a stairway where two invisible figures descend to the ground. There are cage grids around the stairs. Behind the stairs, there are two other pillars next to the stairs-like door. On the left side of the gate there is a wall with a half door. Behind the gate there are two revolving doors and a stall with men.

Prior to 1940, Roscoe expressed a desolate urban environment and adopted a style of expressionism. The subway scene (1938) is such a picture. This is the description and features of the subway station. Another person next to the police officer and the box office and several ticket gates, two people go down several stairs and pass through the stairs in the lower left. Person with a view. There are also four large pillars and a large row of handrails. It seems there is no shadow and it is bad shape making it difficult to find a single light source. It also shows the graphics two-dimensionally, making them appear hollow and dark. The range of color tones is wide, but with cool color (especially gray and blue) you can keep the viewer away from the scene. Also, please note the color, not the details, because the stroke is rough. These factors brought cold and somewhat strange feeling to the scene.

Mark Rothko is an American painter known for his abstract canvas featuring shiny color blocks. The work of Orange and Yellow (1956) is a symbolic example of Roscoe's approach to create brightness with thin paint paint. "For me, art is a spiritual anecdote," he murmured. Marcus Jakobreff Roskowitz born in Daugavpils of Ragabea on September 25, 1903 was born in 1913. He and his family emigrated to America to escape persecution. Roscoe went to Yale University one year after receiving scholarship, then dropped out of school and moved to New York. Here, he studied under the guidance of Max Weber and adopted the flat volume and rich colors he saw in Milton Avery's paintings. In the meantime, Roscoe created many people and interiors. In the late 1940s, Roscoe transformed into an abstraction that is not objective, creating more monochrome than the number in space.

Roscoe Church was named after Mark Rothko, one of the greatest artists of the 20th century and played an important role in New York's abstract expressionism movement. With Dominic and John de Menil committed, Rothco created a space of meditation filled with his painting - an opportunity to shape and control the whole environment for his work. He painted 14 pictures for this space. I removed the organs, removed it and entered the chapel. This is a small space, an octagonal brick building with a gray plaster wall. The walls are decorated with black and dark Roscoe paintings. I enjoyed an uninterrupted time to concentrate on my idea, and quietly sat on one of the eight benches behind. I opened a notebook and started recording my diary. Before I got in, my idea came back to welcome you. This is a sacred space
