About the event
DACAMERA Young Artists present an online concert at the Menil Collection of music inspired by the art of Mark Rothko. Works by friends of Rothko—composers from the New York School—are complemented by two pieces by Mozart, a composer who was a source of inspiration for the artist.
The concert, which is offered online for viewers, was filmed in the Menil’s foyer, where a special display of large, luminous paintings by Mark Rothko are on display through June 6. This program and the museum’s installation of Rothko paintings are organized in conjunction with the Rothko Chapel’s 50th anniversary.
