Rothko Chapel creates a quiet, non-denominational space around fourteen dark paintings by Mark Rothko. Benches, filtered daylight, and the octagonal room reward patience as subtle tones emerge from canvases that first appear nearly black. Outside, Barnett Newman's Broken Obelisk rises above a reflecting pool dedicated to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Come to Rothko Chapel curious, skip the urge to see everything, and follow the work that holds your attention.
