Rothko's striking color combinations are meant to be meditations. He wanted to create art church's where people could look at art and pray. He said "I'm interested only in expressing basic human emotions and the fact that lots of people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures shows that I communicate those basic emotions. The people who weep before my pictures are having the same religious experience that I had when I painted them. Art has a spiritual effect on me. Does it affect you that way too? Let me know what you think.
