The sense of something impending, just around the corner. There is anticipation. (The whole soundtrack of "Drive" is actually about that, but this track has more rhythm and drive than the other instrumental tracks.)
"Orange, Red, Yellow"
Mark Rothko
1961
Acrylic on canvas
236,2 cm × 206,4 cm
Private collection
"(...) At the chapel’s dedication in 1971, Dominique de Menil, spoke unequivocally about her understanding of the significance of Rothko’s work: ‘We are cluttered with images and only abstract art can bring us to the threshold of the divine.’ (...)
(...) What is certainly true is that there are many very wealthy individuals who are prepared to pay for the experience of owning, and, presumably, contemplating a Rothko canvas. In May his glowing Orange, Red, Yellow (1961) shattered all auction records for post-war and contemporary art, when it sold for nearly $87 million (£54 million) at Christie’s in New York."
