RED

"Sunrise is red and red is sunrise. Red is heart beat. Red is passion. Red wine. Red roses. Red lipstick. Beets. Tulips. Peppers. Arterial blood.”

There is only one thing Rothko fears in life: that one day the black will swallow the red. It’s the late 1950s, and Mark Rothko is commissioned to create a series of murals for the Four Seasons Hotel in New York City. He is at the height of his fame, creativity and arrogance. But a new movement of art threatens to trample Rothko’s entire sensibility of what art is and should be. As Rothko and his assistant paint, they wrestle with the ever-changing role of art, and creation, in a modern world.

Doors at 6:30. Before the show, work from local artists will be available for exhibition and purchase in the foyer.
