This week marks the 50th anniversary of one of the great artworks of the 20th century. Not that its creator ever got to see it unveiled. The work in question is the Rothko Chapel in Houston, Texas, which opened its doors on February 26 1971. It was designed by the eponymous American painter, Mark Rothko, who also provided 14 of his trademark abstract canvases for the interior. Visitors over the past half-century have included the Dalai Lama and Nelson Mandela (shortly after his release from prison) but not Rothko himself – who committed suicide in 1970, aged 66. “The chapel was his magnum opus,” the artist’s son, Christopher Rothko, tells me. “It was the ultimate expression of everything he’d done in his career leading up to it.” Located in the leafy Houston neighbourhood of Montrose, the chapel was commissioned by local philanthropists John and Dominique de Menil in 1964. They intended it as a venue for those of any religion – and also no religion – “in search of peace, meditation and a more intense consciousness”. Though based in New York, Rothko seemed the perfect artist to employ. Along with Jackson Pollock, he represented the pinnacle of the Abstract Expressionist movement in the years after the Second World War. However, where Pollock is renowned for his all-action splatters, Rothko’s painting is about contemplation. His pictures – the most expensive of which sold for £54 million in 2012 – typically feature rectangles of different colours and sizes seeming to hover over infinite space. They provide a sense of awe without specific religious connotations.
