I recently read Mark Rothko: a Retrospective. Are there any other Rothko books you would recommend?

Contemporary Art is probably a bit narrow for me, so I'm afraid I won't be of much help.

Have you read Lee Seldes' biography, The Legacy of Mark Rothko?

Hi there,
Got to suggest 'Artist's reality: philosophies of Art' by the man himself (edited by his son from notebooks, but done very well).
