Rothko Chapel Closes Indefinitely After Suffering Damage During Hurricane Beryl
Briefly

The Rothko Chapel in Houston holds a unique space for contemplation across beliefs, but it faces indefinite closure due to severe damage from Hurricane Beryl.
Originally conceived by Mark Rothko and John and Dominique de Menil, the chapel is designed for spiritual reflection, harmonizing architecture with significant artworks.
The Chapel's renovation in 2020 improved skylight and lighting, closely aligning with Rothko’s vision to enhance visitors' connection to the transformative power of his art.
Heavy rain and winds from Hurricane Beryl caused roof leaks at the Rothko Chapel, damaging the structure and specifically impacting three of Rothko's monumental panels.
