On My Mind: The importance of words
There is of course a
difference between words in the artist’s mind and words of critique or
review. The artist’s words are words of intent, of defining the vision
or painting’s aim, and may be silent, or private. The critic’s words are
to conjure the achieved effect of the artist as the critic sees it. I
think trying to define what and why you are painting is important. These
words can enrich the way in which you put paint down, they can
determine what you choose to eliminate or emphasize. In itself a title
to a painting is already a lead-in both for you the artist and for your
viewer. I was recently looking at work of Korean painter whose work is
entirely abstract, a color field. His titles pertain to Korean pottery
referencing celadon and antique glazes. No question that expands one’s
appreciation/viewing.

“My colour has no symbolic function whatever. I don’t want any colour to
be noticeable. I want the colour to be the colour of life, so that you
would notice it as being irregular if it changed. I don’t want it to
operate in the modernist sense as colour, something independent. I don’t
want people to say, “Oh, what was that red or that blue picture of
yours, I’ve forgotten what it was.”

“I am not an abstractionist.. .I am not interested in the relationships
of color or form or anything else.. .I’m interested only in expressing
basic human emotions — tragedy, ecstasy, doom and so on — and the fact
that a lot of people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures
show that I communicate those basic human emotions.. .The people
who weep before my pictures are having the same religious experience I
had when I painted them. And if you, as you say, are moved only by their
color relationships, then you miss the point!”— Mark Rothko
