Talk:Rothko Chapel

April 20, 2010 2:29 PM Editor's note: This article is about a work of art, rather than an individual, organization, lobbyist, front group, etc., PR firm, etc. As such, it does not seem germane to Sourcewatch's mission, but in deference I have removed the information on the talk page to give time for justification. If none is received, page may be deleted.

Anne Landman, CMD Managing Editor

"The Rothko Chapel was the last and one of the most important endeavors that Dominique and John de Menil worked on together. This modern work of religious art commissioned for Houston is comparable in importance to the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence by Henri Matisse or the Chapel in Ronchamp by Le Corbusier in France."
