Note du spécialiste

“Rauschenberg offers massive accumulations of visual information, apparently undigested, but in the context of the picture plane, and the realm of art, they reconfigure themselves and encourage interpretation, the universal quest for symbol and metaphor. On the other hand, they also exist in a more neutral environment, without any particular emotional charge and available to anyone who wants to interact with them. They are finally esthetic objects, and thus traditional works of art”
