A painting of Contemporary Art style which is really well-known among the people of art. The painting PINK CENTRE by Mark Rothko was one of the most expensive ones. $72.8 million. This is the price the painting was sold on the Sotheby’s auction in 2007. Well, to be honest, we, the ordinary people, who are on far distance from the comprehension of contemporary art can not realize the talent and the price. We are skeptical about the painting. For us it is quite easy to draw the same. The Americans, who extremely highly appreciate Rothko, consider him and his works to be their national heritage. But why? And how? Is there anything serious about the picture? Well, the point is in exposition of the painting. The artist asked to place his works in special conditions – the three-meter high paintings should be displayed in the hall of half dark with complete science and the temperature of 18 -19 degrees C. the visitors should view them from the distance of half a meter. Only this way the painting works. You watch it and can get mesmerized by the message from the artist! The painting fascinates you, calling, to get inside the other world which only covers you with the colour – nothing more, no hustle of your daily life. Definitely there is the power in the paintings, but to realize them you need special conditions.
