Museum of Fine Arts, Houston director Gary Tinterow, Rothko Chapel executive director David Leslie, and Menil Collection head librarian Eric Wolf talk about the legacy of abstract-expressionist artist Mark Rothko (1903-1970), and why Houston is currently the ultimate destination city for lovers of Rothko’s work. The MFAH is currently showing Mark Rothko: A Retrospective, an exhibition of more than 60 paintings tracing Rothko’s entire career arc, on view through January 24, 2016.
