Dimensions: 8 x 5 inches. Good overall vintage condition. Printed signature from an edition of unknown. Artist biography: Robert Rauschenberg’s enthusiasm for popular culture and, with his contemporary Jasper Johns, his rejection of the angst and seriousness of the Abstract Expressionists led him to search for a new way of painting. A prolific innovator of techniques and mediums, he used unconventional art materials ranging from dirt and house paint to umbrellas and car tires. In the early 1950s, Rauschenberg was already gaining a reputation as a true art world rebel rouser, with works such as Erased de Kooning Drawing (1953), for which he requested a drawing from Willem de Kooning, and proceeded to rub away the image until only ghostly marks remained on the paper. By 1954, Rauschenberg completed his first three-dimensional collage paintings — he called them Combines; a process wherein he incorporated discarded materials and mundane objects to explore the intersection of art and life. In 1964 he became the first American to win the International Grand Prize in Painting at the Venice Biennale. Related Categories Pop Art. New York Artists. 20th Century Art. Mixed-Media.
