“Rothko’s art utters a single word insistently. But everyone hears it differently. The community functions perfectly until someone tries to describe the word.” (Brian O’Doherty, p. 46)

This is an excellent "textbook" for anyone who wants a condensed, authoritative resource about the Rothko Chapel from start to finish.

i got to visit this very special chapel last week, and that was a rich experience for me. this little book provided me with some information about the place i visited. if nothing else, it is remarkable in that it boasts a preface, a prologue, AND an introduction. that's the kind of thing i like to see.
