Rothko firmly held the opinion that the artist's truth is above public interest: In matters of art our society values ​​taste above truth, and changes its tastes like hats or shoes. And although Rothko did not leave his students, his creative position inspires many young artists. Valentin Masalskis, who is creating the role of Rothko, is also looking for a connection with youth, a new generation in his performance, working together with three young artists.

When I read this play, it seemed to me that it really worth attention, as well as the personality acting in it. It can be said that this is an elite play. But it seems to me that it is deeply problematic. The tragedy of the artist's aging is important here, as well as his understanding that another generation is coming. The play is written about a person coming, not about a person leaving. Although the tragedy of Mark Rothko is felt throughout the play. He actually committed suicide on February 25, 1970, says director and actor V. Masalskis. I personally understand the tragedy of Rothko, the sense that an aging artist must leave and make way for the next one. There comes a time when you realize that your art is temporary. It seems to me that the artist, and the art itself, live together with the current time, the period. Its historical value is antique. Art is a wake-up call, a promoter of society, it is like the face with which a person is born and dies. I think this is the function, the purpose of art. Therefore, living art must always renew itself.

Premiere: November 22, 2018
