(Maybe it will travel - I mean somewhere other than London in the UK, as in Liverpool.) I saw a Rothko retrospective many years ago ...(Also very possibly at the Tate..? I can't remember.), however I can remember the paintings seemed like bottomless spaces...I can remember thinking that you didn't quite know where you (the viewer :))were supposed to be in relation to them :) It wasn't until I was an art student that I was told that he meant them to be spiritual observances, at the time of seeing the exhibition I was just a bit awed by the physicality/colour of the paint. (Also: they must have been hung lower when I saw them as I don't remember having to look up to see them, the middle of the paintings must have been at about eye level.)
