Robert Rauschenberg- Painting/Collage

Rauschenberg, born in 1925, was a 20th century artist who broadened the horizons of what 'painting' could be, heavily utilising screen printing and collage and also painting on varied surfaces including canvas, board, fabric, sheet metal, Plexiglas, plaster, and paper. His 'Combines' series from the 1950s demonstrates this approach, combining traditional and non-traditional art materials.

Here are a few examples of his work. For more information on Rauschenberg, please visit the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation website.
