Unfortunately, Rothko was right, I think, in these words, and much more so today than then, arguably. I would recommend a film by the BBC's Ben Lewis--called The Great Contemporary Art Bubble--to see how contemporary art is linked to (and has been corrupted by) big money. Robert Hughes recent film is also good.
BBC docs these days can be a bit Hollywoody in style, but Hughes' and Lewis' facts are on the money. (Literally.)

reality of painter, it's enough to go, or to go back, to the gift of silence

This is part of Simon Schama's excellent eight part BBC documentary "Power of Art - Caravaggio, Bernini, Rembrandt, David, Turner, Van Gogh, Picasso, Rothko"
The actor portraying Rothko is Allan Corduner.

ultimately art is JUST art. Rothko was kind of a bastard, but he sure knew how to paint.

@chandru1103 "JUST" seems not to be an appropriate word describing his art. He wished to make a point on sth he felt really important – silence. But how to embed “silence” so that it was visible? Ans: shock. You are left speechless then. That’s why he was a bastard…

@tvpaker2008 NO NO NO I love his work...he's the only artist that handles the concept of emotion successfully in my opinion. I'm just saying he was a bullheaded and stubborn advocate of elitism. He also did not accept any other approach to painting and art as legitimate....making him a bastard.
