ARKANSAS ARTS CENTER: Mark Rothko In The 1940s: The Decisive Decade, an examination into the artistic maturation — a decade of searching and rapid evolution— of one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century that deserves not only closer attention but also a re-evaluation. Mark Rothko In The 1940s is the first exhibition and catalogue to reevaluate this work in the context of Rothko’s thoughts about art from the period. Mark Rothko In The 1940s will bring to light many works not seen before by scholars or the public and highlight a period of his career that is often overlooked. The paintings, drawings and watercolors by Mark Rothko in this exhibition are on loan from the National Gallery in Washington. This exhibition includes 27 works by Mark Rothko and was organized by the Arkansas Arts Center, the Columbia Museum of Art, the Columbus Musem of Art and the Denver Art Museum in conjunction with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. Mark Rothko In The 1940s will be on display Oct. 25 through Feb. 9. Special ticket pricing available in conjunction with The Rep’s production of Red. For more information, visit arkarts.com.
