Hi Mark
I did say "The better artists are the ones who go
beyond this difference"
I'm a particular fan of rothko. I found it interesting that
he went more and more minimal over time; reducing form to
washes of colour and then finally reducing the colour to
greys. It seems to me that he suicided at that point cos
there was no where else for him to go conceptually. Again an
over simplification. Rothko's are very beautiful canvases.
