The Seduction of Light: Ammi Phillips | Mark Rothko Compositions in Pink, Green, and Red
By Stacy C. Hollander, with a foreword by Maria Ann Conelli and an essay by Bonnie Clearwater. New York: American Folk Art Museum, 2008. 30 pages, 18 full-color illustrations, softcover, 8 1/2 x 11 in. Bound in with Folk Art 33 (fall 2008).
The Seduction of Light considers the art of portrait painter Ammi Phillips (1788–1865) and abstract artist Mark Rothko (1903–1970), two American masters disparate in time, place, and presentation who pursued the creation of inner light through the vehicle of color in their paintings. This volume is the catalog of the thoughtful, critically acclaimed exhibition mounted by the museum in 2008–2009.
