Surveying Rauschenberg’s varied contributions to postmodern art, from his “Combines” to his metal works and everything in between
Published with Kunsthalle Krems/Robert Rauschenberg Foundation/Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac.
Best known for his “Combines,” in which he incorporated everyday objects and found materials into abstract paintings, American artist Robert Rauschenberg (1925–2008) melded painting, sculpture, collage, photography and printmaking into hybrid forms. Organized chronologically, this volume surveys his oeuvre through all of its phases, beginning with his interplay between photography and gestural painting in the ’50s, to the emergence of his silkscreen paintings in the early ’60s, to his increased focus on metal as a support for paint during the ’80s, to his turn to digital image processes in the ’90s. It also documents Rauschenberg’s performative, theatrical and interdisciplinary projects, for which he collaborated with artists such as John Cage, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jasper Johns and Jean Tinguely. The volume includes a biography, timeline and short expository texts that precede each section. Altogether, Image and Gesture attests to Rauschenberg’s propulsive experimentation with mediums and materiality.

Gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Umfangreiche Monografie zu einem der einflussreichsten Künstler des 20. Jahrhunderts: Robert Rauschenberg, Wegbereiter der Pop-Art und Konzeptkunst. Weltbekannt wurde Robert Rauschenberg mit seinen »Combines«, in denen er Alltagsmaterialien mit abstrakter Malerei fusionierte, um damit die Lücke zwischen Kunst und Leben zu schließen. Die Monografie dokumentiert sein Werk durch alle Phasen seiner Entwicklung: das Zusammenspiel von fotografischem Bildmaterial und gestischer Malerei seit den 1950er Jahren ebenso wie die seit Beginn der 1960er-Jahre entstehenden »Silkscreen Paintings«. In späteren Werkserien rückt der Künstler die Materialität der Bildträger zunehmend in den Vordergrund, in den 1990er-Jahren wendet sich Rauschenberg früh digitalen Bildprozessen zu. Dokumentiert sind ebenso Rauschenbergs performative, theatrale und interdisziplinäre Projekte, für die er unter anderem mit John Cage, Niki de Saint-Phalle, Jasper Johns oder Jean Tinguely zusammenarbeitete.
