Item description from seller

The Legacy of Mark Rothko: An Exposé of the Greatest Art Scandal of Our Century by Lee Seldes is a critical examination of the art world surrounding the life and works of abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko. The book explores the controversies and scandals involving Rothko s art, particularly focusing on the mystery surrounding his final years and the handling of his estate after his death. Seldes investigates the disputes over the ownership and sale of Rothko's paintings, as well as the broader implications for the art market and the exploitation of artists' legacies. The book serves as both an analysis of Rothko s art and a critique of the commercialization and manipulation of his work, positioning the story as one of the most significant art scandals of the 20th century.
