Art Appreciation
Robert Rauschenberg was a Neo-Dadaists American Pop Artist known for his three dimensional collages. He incorporated trash and objects found on the streets and used various paint applications and materials in his work to make political or cultural statements.
Rauschenberg is recognized for Erased de Kooning Drawing, where he basically erased a drawing by Willem de Kooning. Signs is another Rauschenberg work widely recognized for the images of Janis Joplin, Bobby Kennedy, John F. Kennedy and the 60s era.
Rauschenberg was born in Port Arthur, Texas on October 22, 1925. He later received a National Medal of Arts in 1993.
