"Critical essays on the artist Robert Rauschenberg, focusing on the important period of his development in the 1950s and 1960s. From the moment art historian Leo Steinberg championed his work in opposition to Clement Greenberg's rigid formalism, Robert Rauschenberg has played a pivotal role in the development and understanding of postmodern art. Challenging nearly all the prevailing assumptions about the visual arts of his time, he pioneered the postwar revival of collage, photography, silkscreen, technology, and performance. This book focuses on Rauschenberg's work during the critical period of the 1950s and 1960s. It opens with a newly prefaced version of Leo Steinberg's 'Reflections on the State of Criticism,' the first published version of his famous 1972 essay, 'Other Criteria,' which remains the single most important text on Rauschenberg. Rosalind Krauss's 'Rauschenberg and the Materialized Image' builds on Steinberg's essay, arguing that Rauschenberg's work represents a decisive shift in contemporary art. Douglas Crimp's 'On the Museum's Ruins' examines Rauschenberg's silkscreens in the context of the modern museum. Helen Molesworth's 'Before Bed' uses psychoanalytic and economic structures to examine the artist's Black Paintings of the early 1950s. A second essay by Krauss, 'Perpetual Inventory,' revisits both her and Steinberg's articles of nearly twenty-five years earlier. Finally, Branden Joseph's 'A Duplication Containing Duplications' views Rauschenberg's silkscreens in relation to the artist's interests in technology, particularly television." - Publisher.

Trade Paperback. Condition: New. 'Painting relates to both art and life. Neither can be made. (I try to act in the gap between the two.)' --Robert RauschenbergThe early 1950s, when Robert Rauschenberg launched his career, was the heyday of the heroic gestural painting of Abstract Expressionism. Rauschenberg challenged this tradition, inventing new interdisciplinary models of artistic practice that shaped the decades to come. Published in conjunction with this century's first retrospective of this defining figure in postwar art, this richly illustrated catalog reframes Rauschenberg's widely celebrated Combines (1954-64) and silkscreen paintings (1962-64) in fresh ways. It also illuminates lesser-known periods within Rauschenberg's career, including his work of the early 1950s and that from the late 1960s onward, now compelling and prescient to contemporary eyes.Sixteen short essays by eminent scholars and emerging new writers focus on specific moments throughout Rauschenberg's career, exploring his creative production across an extraordinary range of media and following him on his travels around the globe. Integrating new scholarship, documentary imagery and archival materials, Robert Rauschenberg is the first comprehensive catalogue of the artist's career in 20 years, an important contribution to American cultural and intellectual history and a necessary volume for anyone interested in contemporary art.

New in Near Fine dust jacket (1/8-inch closed tear at the top of the front fold, else Fine). From the publisher: "Organized by Chief Curator Paul Schimmel, Robert Rauschenberg: Combines focuses on the Combines created roughly between 1954 and 1964, the most important decade in the artist's 50-year career. The most complete survey of these works ever mounted, the exhibition featured close to eighty key works drawn from major collections. Poetic and lush, the Combines present layers of complex and sometimes conflicting information. This prescient approach has become increasingly relevant in the current age of cascading information, when even the most groundbreaking artists are referencing and sampling disparate elements to create new forms. The Combines suggest the fragility of definitions, the fluidity of materials, and the complexity of forms that is characteristic of Rauschenberg's works. The artist's handling of materials provides a precise physical evolutionary link between the painterliness of Abstract Expressionism and iconographical, subject-driven qualities of early Pop Art. The book constitutes the most complete survey of the Combines ever presented, as well as the most rigorous analysis of their political, social, autobiographical, and aesthetic significance."
