Robert Rauschenberg



-This is a piece by Rauschenberg called Dilaby made in 1962. as an American painter and graphic artist, he tends to create artwork that "includes both freedom and a love of cast-off objects." (http://www.museomadre.it/) His work could be categorized under abstract expressionism and pop art. Rauschenberg made a bunch of combines, which was the name he gave to his sculptures. For example, pieces like Satellite, Canyon and Bed. I am usually not a fan of sculptural works that include random objects because I usually don't understand them however, the way that Rauschenberg assembles his work is very interesting and I love that he uses elements of painting, printmaking and photography in some of his works as well.
