Special Installation: Mark Rothko: Seagram Murals
On view Tuesday, December 6th - Wednesday, August 15th
Free

As the world's most important repository and study center of Rothko's art, the Gallery has installed three murals related to the artist's commission to decorate a dining room in the Seagram Building's Four Seasons restaurant in 1958. This presentation of these works is timed to coincide with the presentation of John Logan's play Red at Arena Stage (January 20–March 4), which dramatizes Rothko's struggle with the commission.
