Helen Winkler Fosdick, art historian; Carol Mancusi-Ungaro, art conservator; and Christopher Rothko, Ph.D., son of Mark Rothko, come together for a discussion of their own transformative encounters with the Rothko Chapel.  These three professionals make a rare appearance together in the beautiful afternoon light and intimate space of the Chapel to offer insights into the profound mystery of the Rothko Chapel.  The program will be moderated by Harry Cooper, PhD., head of the department of modern and contemporary art at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., who recently oversaw the exhibition In the Tower: Mark Rothko.
