| Title: | The Experiential Sublime: Perception, Conception, and Emotion in Mark Rothko’s Classic Color-Field Paintings |
| Author(s): | Bromberger, Bianca |

| Abstract: | Rather than being simple studies of abstract color and form, Mark Rothko's color-field paintings are argued to evoke intense emotional experiences. An investigation into how light is visually perceived
and subsequently conceptually and emotionally experienced reveals how planes of color become catalysts for an internal experience of the
Sublime when encountered by a viewer. |
