In 1967, Mark Rothko Tate Gallery in London offered 30 of its paintings - but the museum had only nine. Now they can bite elbows: Now the painting, which they refused, could bring at auction more than a billion dollars
In 1967, the famous painter Mark Rothko (Mark Rothko, 1903-1970) Tate Gallery in London invited 30 of his works but members of the Board of Trustees of the museum agreed to take only nine. The reason for refusal was the fact that Tate was not possible to include all 30 paintings in the permanent exhibition, which the artist had hoped.
As a number of works that Rothko wanted to give London the museum consisted of pictures that were exhibited at the artist's retrospective at the New York Museum of Modern Art in 1961, as well as canvases that the artist wrote in 1958 for the Four Seasons Restaurant . Now all of these products could be sold for an amount exceeding $ 1 billion.
The then director of the Tate Norman Reid (Norman Reid) made friends with the artist in 1965, visiting his studio. He decided all the same to take nine of his paintings. They were hanged in a separate room, which is called «Rothko room». Now this small room is very popular with museum visitors.
Rothko always meticulously treated to ensure, where his works will be exhibited. The paintings, which he created for the Four Seasons, both there and not there - to visit this elegant establishment, the artist came to horror. He terminated the contract with the restaurant, which is called «the place where are the richest bastards in New York to feed and show themselves». By задумке Rothko, the paintings, which he intended to give the Tate should have been exhibited at the same time, but the board of trustees gave him to understand that this is impossible.
Eight of the nine paintings, donated by the museum, estimated at 330 thousand dollars - a large sum for those days. Now they are, of course, are many times more expensive. In November 2005, picture of 1953 «Dedication Matisse» brought 22.5 million dollars at auction and became the most expensive work of post-war artist. In May 2007, this record was beaten: Work «White Center (Yellow, pink and pale lilac to dark pink)» went for 72.2 million dollars. Rothko was not the only one of the most quoted in the market post-war artists, but author of the most expensive work of artists of Russian origin .
Why is a famous artist wished to give their work is the Tate Gallery? First, as they say, Rothko was «offended» American museums, which at that time were interested in a pop-art. Secondly, the artist wanted his works exhibited in the same building as the magnificent landscapes of Turner. This desire was fulfilled, but in 2000 it was decided to postpone «Rothko room» to the new Tate Modern museum. Now it runs major exhibition of recent creations of the artist .
Famous works of art, who did not want to take the museum

- In 1939, the British queen-mother refused to take a picture «Conversation in Eyntri» English expressionist brush Sikkerta Walter (Walter Sickert) but in 1951 it will be decided to include it in the royal collection.

But when the curator Lawrence Ellouey (Lawrence Alloway) saw the work he was in such shock that it had withdrawn from the exhibition.
- In 1992, the National Portrait Gallery refused include in its collection a portrait of the playwright Alan Bennett (Alan Bennett), the artists Tom Wood (Tom Wood). The thing is that Bennett, in a picture ... a vacuum cleaner. Gallery has chosen another, less prosaic portrait of the playwright.
