Content Warning: Discussion of suicide
In 1970, Abstract Expressionist painter Mark Rothko was found dead in his New York studio, leaving behind nearly 800 paintings worth millions. Within weeks, his executors—including his trusted accountant Bernard Reis—had signed contracts turning over his entire life's work to the Marlborough Gallery under terms that would shock the art world.
What followed was one of the most dramatic legal battles in art history, as Rothko's 19-year-old daughter Kate fought to expose a conspiracy that reached from Manhattan to Liechtenstein. The case would reveal how the very systems Rothko created to protect his legacy became the weapons used to exploit it.
This is the story of how an artist's deepest fears about the art market came true after his death—and how one young woman's fight for justice exposed the mechanisms of power, greed, and betrayal that still define the art world today.
