Résumé

Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) was one of the most prolific and innovative artists of the post-war period. His work, ranging across diverse disciplines, has had a profound influence on avant-garde art from the 1950s onwards. In his Combines - constructions melding painting and sculpture - Rauschenberg brought elements of popular culture and everyday life into his art through the process of collage, integrating a staggering array of materials and ideas into the compositions.
From the Combines, Rauschenberg diversified into printmaking, silkscreen painting, performance, works involving technology and many other activities. This book also examines Rauschenberg's extensive involvement in the performing arts, tracing his connections to avant-garde dance in the United States and his collaborations with the choreographers Merce Cunningham and Trisha Brown.
Catherine Craft has specialized in Rauschenberg's art since her involvement as a research assistant for an exhibition of his work at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, in 1992. An independent scholar of modern and contemporary art, Craft was a contributing author to the exhibition catalogue Robert Rauschenberg : Haywire - Major Technological Works of the 1960s in 1997, and is also the author of An Audience of Artists : Dada, Neo-Dada, and the Emergence of Abstract Expressionism (2012).
Additionally, she has written articles on newly discovered, unpublished writings by Rauschenberg, published in Art in America and The Burlington Magazine. Craft is the Adjunct Assistant Curator for Research and Exhibitions at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas.
