Abstract Reality ART HIST RY KIDS The Mark Rothko’s Studiowith Abstract Reality ART HIST RY KIDS MARK ROTHKO: ART TEACHER A creativity-focused teaching style Mark Rothko appreciated the way children make art. He taught art to children (ages 5-13) for over 20 years! As he taught, he did everything he could to ensure that kids would have an opportunity to express their own individual creativity and he encouraged open-ended art. (This is the exact philosophy we embrace at Art History Kids!) Here are the key idea that made up Rothko’s teaching style... Idea #1: Share with your students that art is a universal language and a core means of expression– much like speaking or singing. Art is for everyone, and we are all artists! Rothko wrote: “These children have ideas, often fine ones, and Click they express them vividly and beautifully, so that they make us feel what they feel, hence their efforts are intrinsically works of art.” to read Idea #2: Formal art lessons may hinder the child’s creativity. Invite kids to create open-ended art, and make a variety of art supplies accessible to kids. a full Idea #3: Showing kids work in an art show promotes self-confidence. Kids can article learn a lot from presenting their work and considering the work of their peers! about Idea #4: Begin your art history explorations with modern art (rather than the Old Masters). Modern art – like Picasso, Matisse, (and even Rothko’s), is a better place to start with art education because it’s more approachable for kids com- Rothko’s pared with refined Renaissance masterpieces. teaching Idea #5: Encourage creative thinking over proficient technique. Most kids won’t end up with jobs in the arts, but that doesn’t mean the art education wasn’t style. extremely valuable. The things kids learn in art class will help them in the future – whatever their chosen profession may be! The world needs innovative problem solvers, and kids develop this skill by looking at and making art regularly.

Rothko also created paintings for a very unique place of worship! Take a look at the Rothko Chapel in Houston Texas. Click the image to see a video tour hosted by Mark Rothko’s son. Text taken directly from The Rothko Chapel’s website: “The Rothko Chapel is a spiritual space, a forum for world leaders, a place for solitude and gathering. It’s an epicenter for civil rights activists, a quiet disruption, a stillness that moves. It’s a destination for the 100,000 people of all faiths who visit each year from all parts of the world. It is the home of the Óscar Romero Award. The space contains 14 murals created by American artist Mark Rothko. Philip Johnson, Howard Barnstone, and Eugene Aubry were the architects. Outside, Barnett Newman’s Broken Obelisk rises above the reflecting pool on the Plaza.

Let’s review what we know about Mark Rothko and his color field paintings. Mark Rothko (originally Markus Yakovlev- ich Rothkowitz) was born on September 25, 1903 and he died on February 25, 1970. His family moved from Russia to the United States when he was young. He was friends with a group of influential artists in New York – the Abstract Expressionists. Although his early paintings were represen- tational, he found his signature style in abstract art, first multiforms, and then later color field paintings. His vast large-scale canvases were meant to be seen up close – Rothko recom- mended viewing them from a distance of 18 inches so that the edges of the canvas would be seen in the peripheral view and the viewer would feel engulfed by the art. Mark Rothko explained that his art was a representation of the human experience.

    Internalizing the Sun An Exploration in Light-Driven Architecture Sri Gaura Ely A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture University of Washington 2019 Committee: Christopher Meek Ann Marie Borys Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Architecture © Copyright 2019 Sri Gaura Ely University of Washington Abstract Internalizing the Sun An Exploration in Light-Driven Architecture Sri Gaura Ely Chairs of the Supervisory Committee: Christopher Meek Ann Marie Borys Can architecture utilize light to evoke a feeling of the sublime? This thesis is an exploration of daylight- driven architecture, architecture that is designed to utilize direct sunlight and ambient skylight for specifically prescribed effects. The foundation of this project draws on the thinking of architectural masters, the perspective of lighting experts, and the lessons of precedent studies to direct a process of designing architecture that allows occupants to approach a sense of divinity. I believe that architecture is at its best when shelter, space, symbolism, and function are balanced with a desire to delight. Architecture’s ability to elicit emotion from individuals, to incite wonder and awe, largely through occupation, is special. In order to exceed programmatic requirements and provoke an emotional response, the endeavor is to create architecture that is akin to art. The proposal explored is an architecture which utilizes natural light to evoke the sublime through its cosmic connection with the sun, sky, and horizon. Internalizing the Sun An Exploration in Light-Driven Architecture Sri Gaura Ely Committee: Christopher Meek Ann Marie Borys Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my parents, Kosarupa and Bada Haridas, to my brother Charles, to my dearest friends, you know who you are, and to my community of well-wishers.

Introduction When I concluded my studies on Product Design, I realized that I was much more aware of the space and the environment created through the relation of elements present than just the objects themselves. This interest led me to become very attentive to museum spaces, more specifically to the relation between the space and the artwork and how the space around an artwork influences its observation. I have come to realize that an artwork doesn’t exist without a space around it; an artwork needs a space to live on and to be observed on.

  • Heat and Light Thematised in the Modern Architecture of Houston
    703 The Journal of Architecture Volume 16 Number 5 Heat and light thematised in the modern architecture of Houston Michelangelo Sabatino Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture, University of Houston, 122 College of Architecture Bldg, Houston, Texas, TX 77204-4000, USA Mid-twentieth-century modern architecture in Houston thematised responsiveness to the natural phenomena of heat and light despite the fact that Houston’s most celebrated modern buildings were designed to be completely reliant on central air-conditioning. An examination of Houston buildings constructed from the late 1940s through the 1960s demonstrates the ways in which modern architects sought to privilege the architectural rec- ognition of regional climatic difference while also employing modern technology to allevi- ate local climatic extremes of heat and humidity. The spectacular modern buildings that represent this era in Houston raise crucial questions: How did architects reconcile the doc- trine of climatic responsiveness to the equally modern desire for maximum transparency? What proved more compelling: responsiveness to local circumstance or the imperatives of modern structural and mechanical engineering? Did modern architects perceive that there might be contradictions between responsiveness to climate and other aspects of modern architectural identity, such as transparency? Because concern about the roles of building design and construction in the responsible use of natural resources is current at the turn of the twenty-first century, it is pertinent to examine the ways modern architects in a particular climatic setting negotiated the issue of climatic responsiveness as modern architecture became the dominant practice. Introduction States during the post-war period strenuously ques- Twentieth-century modern architecture was ident- tioned the universalising claims of the modern ified with an exploration of innovative building movement by investigating regional building prac- materials and rationalised planning and construc- tices that registered material and climatic differ- tion practices.

My thesis is an examination of two instances where artists have broken outside the box and carefully crafted unique exhibition spaces within which an intentional dialogue between art works and viewer, art works and space, content and context is established. It considers two twentieth century artists from the United States of America, Mark Rothko and Donald Judd, both of whom rethought and ultimately rejected the mediating constraints prevalent in the conventional exhibition spaces of their time.

  • Beyond the Headlines
    BEYOND THE HEADLINES Who were the de Menils? John and Dominique de Menil, immigrants from France, became Houston philanthropists, activists, and art collectors. They founded the Menil Foundation (1954), Rothko Chapel (1971), Menil Collection (1987), Cy Twombly Gallery (1995), and Richmond Hall (1998), which houses Dan Flavin’s commissioned exhibit. What is the Rothko Chapel? The Rothko Chapel, founded by John and Dominique de Menil, was dedicated in 1971 as an intimate sanctuary. It is not committed to any one religion and imposes no particular traditional environment, but is available to people of every belief. A tranquil meditative environment inspired by the canvases of Russian-born American painter Mark Rothko (1903-1970), the Chapel welcomes over 60,000 visitors each year, including art lovers, scholars, and people of every faith from all parts of the world. The Rothko Chapel is an independent non-profit institution, a sacred place open to all people, every day of the year. In 2001 the Chapel was listed in the National Register of Historic Places, an honor awarded before the institution was fifty years old because it was considered of exceptional worth. The Chapel regularly makes top ten lists of places to visit, and is a featured entry in National Geographic’s book Sacred Places of a Lifetime: 500 of the World’s Most Peaceful and Powerful Destinations. It is a place alive with religious ceremonies of all faiths, and where the experience and understanding of all traditions are encouraged and made available. Action takes the form of supporting human rights, and the Chapel has become a rallying place for all people concerned with peace, freedom, and social justice throughout the world.
