Rothko, Mark, 1903-1970; Bashkoff, Tracey R.; Klein, Yves, 1928-1972; Turrell, James - Published on the occasion of the exhibition held at the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin, July 7-Oct. 7, 2001 - On the Sublime accompanied a small exhibition of minimalist works by Mark Rothko, Yves Klein and James Turrell. The exhibit included color-field paintings and light installations that are quietly captivating, and we tried to evoke the same spirit in this simple book. The cover is delicate and evanescent; pages are thick and sober; transparent tints separate chapters; and the typography is (we hope) both retiring and monumental. - CONTENTS: Rothko's sublimities / Robert Rosenblum -- Yves Klein and the double-edged sublime / Thomas McEvilley -- James Turrell and the nonvicarious sublime / Frances Richard. 9780892072477 ISBN 0892072474.
