Rothko admired Matisse and in a title of one his painting he wrote ” Tribute to Matisse”.
When you see a Rothko’s painting you almost see the transparency of the painting, the layer is very thin, the colors are floating. you can experiment in front of one of them in the Tehran ‘s Modern Art Museum . In opposite Klein ‘s painting is depth with strenghth pigments. But both, were searching a spiritual way in their abstract works.

I saw beautiful blue skies in Iran, not in Tehran but in Shiraz or in Yazd and also in the South of France. But in Lille, to console our selves, there are wonderful sunsets!
