Bøker av Dore Ashton

The essential book on Mark Rothko for the modern art lover's library.

With the emergence of Abstract Expressionism after World War II, the attention of the international art world turned from Paris to New York. In this book, Dore Ashton captures the vitality of the cultural milieu in which the New York School artists worked and argued from the 1930s to the 1950s.

An anthology of Pablo Picasso's statements about art

As the Washington Post says, "Dore Ashton brings the reader to the very core of Mark Rothko's art." She draws on her countless interviews with the artist- giving little credence to the false mythology surrounding his work- to take us to the heart of Rothko's painting, showing its derivation from his reading, travel, and thought.
