Mark Rothko (September 25, 1903 – February 25, 1970) was an American painter of Russian Jewish descent. He is generally identified as an Abstract Expressionist. You can read more about Rothko here.
He is most well-known for his “color block” paintings.
This is my favorite Rothko quote: “It’s a widely accepted notion among painters that it does not matter what one paints as long as it’s well painted.”
