    Rauschenberg, Robert
    Rauschenberg, Robert u key Albers and in the late 1950s he came under the influence of Marcel Duchamp . With his friend Jasper Johns , Rauschenberg became a pivotal figure in the emerging pop art movement. His enormously inventive paintings, some of which incorporate silkscreen, include everyday images and objects and are executed in a loose, spontaneous style. He has also experimented extensively with assemblage.

In the 27 years since his first museum show, he has struggled to overcome the label of photorealist, and the subtle but constant evolution demonstrated in this retrospective should finally prove that he never really belonged in that particular school. Instead, a man concerned with the vagaries of paint and its application, with the process of seeing, and with the creative process is what emerges. - Anne Birnie

For more than fifty years, American artist robert rauschenberg has created art using both traditional and nontraditional materials—often in combination.
http://www.npg.si.edu/cexh/artnews/rausch.htm
ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG born 1925
ARTnews sent a reporter in 1962 to meet Rauschenberg at his studio. There the thirty-seven-year-old artist was at the beginning of a "combine-painting" that he ultimately titled Inside-Out . Bringing together such items as a mirror, embossed tin, and a tricycle wheel and assembling them on a wood structure mounted on four casters, Rauschenberg created a freestanding sculpture from trash found in his lower Manhattan neighborhood. While working on Inside-Out , Rauschenberg took this photograph by aiming his camera at the mirror in the piece. Like so much of his work, Inside-Out creates a visual situation that implicates the viewer in the object itself. Self-portrait

Rap Pioneer Passes
Chad "Pimp C" Butler died of natural causes on December 4, 2007. At just 33, Butler was a member of the hip-hop and rap duo UGK (Underground Kings) formed with fellow Port Arthuran Bernard "Bun B" Freeman in 1987. Pioneers of the southern rap sound, the pair teamed with various other performers and achieved national success with hits like "Big Pimpin" with Jay Z in 2000. Ironically, the board of directors for the Port Arthur Historical Society voted to induct UGK into the Music Hall of Fame at the Museum of the Gulf Coast on November 29, just days before Butler passed. "We at the Museum recognize the impact UGK has had on the musical heritage of the Gulf Coast and we wish to extend our deepest sympathies to the friends and family of Chad Butler during this difficult time," says director Shannon Harris.

48. Robert Rauschenberg
rauschenberg is one of the key artists defining and developing the technical and philosophic art landscape and its offshoots after Abstract Expressionism.
http://www.famoustexans.com/rauschenberg.htm
Home Stage/Screen Music Sports ... Journalism R auschenberg's has been a full life: Christian fundamentalist upbringing, breakaway study in Paris and the Art Students League, fame, money, more fame, more money, an island home off Florida, bouts of drinking, bouts of quitting, commendable public works (among other things, his foundation provides funds for needy artists). Along with longtime friends pre-Pop painter Jasper Johns and the late conceptual composer John Cage, Rauschenberg pretty much defined the technical and philosophic art landscape and its offshoots after Abstract Expressionism.
Born in Texas in 1925 at Port Arthur, Texas, Rauschenberg wanted to be a minister but gave it up because the church prohibited dancing and he loved to dance.
In 1942 he studied pharmacy briefly at the University of Texas, following which he was drafted into the U.S. Marines. From 1947 to 1948 he studied at famous schools like the Kansas City Art Institute and Black Mountain College near Asheville, N.C., including various subjects such as art history, sculpture and music. During this time he did window displays, executed film sets and designed photographic studios. In 1948 he attended the Acad©mie Julian, Paris, met Susan Weil, who was later to become his wife, and returned to the USA to study under Joseph Albers at the Black Mountain College, North Carolina. Exiled European Josef Albers put the green artist through his paces. (This may be what gives the work such formal rigor.)
At Black Mountain College Rauschenberg met the choreographer Merce Cunningham and the composer John Cage in 1949 and collaborated closely with both of them. In the same year he moved to New York and studied at the Art Students' League until 1952. He did window displays for Bonwit Teller and Tiffany, had his first one-man exhibitions in 1951 and returned to Black Mountain College in 1952. He traveled in Italy, France and Spain and had exhibition in 1953 at Florence and Rome. He moved into a studio in New York in the same year and started to paint his red pictures, replacing the all-white and all-black paintings. Earliest works were white and black fields influenced by and influencing Cage. Already an art guru, in the '50s Cage staged a performance of three minutes of complete silence, setting in motion the anti-art strategies found in Rauschenberg and in much work today.

Program: Video Portrait: Robert Rauschenberg
Date:
Subject: Rauschenberg, Robert
Joan Logue
Clip Description
This was originally made as part of a project called "Artists on Artists." Various artists created video works, specifically for the New Television Workshop, on other artists. It was broadcast as part of the "Artist's Showcase" series.
"Artist's Showcase" was a series designed to showcase video art and experimental work from WGBH. The program ran on Sunday evenings at 11 P.M., from the fall of 1976 through 1982. In the early 1970's, "Artist's Showcase" was the only consistent broadcast outlet for many of the Workshop productions. Most materials of broadcast quality created at WGBH in the mid-1970's were shown as part of this series. Additionally, earlier video art experiments and segments of related shows, such as "Mixed Bag" or "What's Happening Mr. Silver" were broadcast under these auspices. This series was also a broadcast outlet for a handful of works by video artists that were not created at WGBH but only acquired for this purpose. Some compilation reels showing highlights of Workshop activity were also broadcast.

Combine painting: oil, paper, fabric, printed reproductions, printed paper, and wood on canvas. 49 7/8 x 40 in. (127 x 102 cm)
Anonymous gift. 59.141 Rauschenberg, suspicious of the pretensions of fine art, experiments freely with nonart items and materials that others would dismiss as junk. He has said, "I don't really trust ideas, especially good ones. Rather I put my trust in the materials that confront me, because they put me in touch with the unknown." Rauschenberg's sensitivity to texture and material enables him to draw objects from completely unrelated contexts and juxtapose them in order to make a witty or poignant observation. In Migration , Rauschenberg has brought together many elements in a visually provocative manner: a clock without hands, a piece of a cardboard moving box, newspaper photographs, numbers from a sports jersey, and a soiled white shirt. He isolates these objects in distinct areas, yet pieces of the objects are found throughout the canvas. Even the paint that defines the areas is not static, but runs into neighboring colors. Rather than stating or even suggesting a fixed meaning, Rauschenberg brings together the flotsam and jetsam of the postindustrial world so that we, the viewers, are left to create our own set of meanings, just as we must do in the world outside the gallery. Collage assemblages such as Migration are typical of the works Rauschenberg produced in the 1950s, which changed during the 1960s with his greater use of the silkscreen process.

AN ARTIST AHEAD OF HIS TIME
BUT WILL HE STAND THE TEST OF TIME? Views by Jody Zellen . . . .Mat Gleason
As tremendous and encyclopedic as the current retrospective of Robert Rauschenberg is, pardon me for not being able to quite live in the moment. In a world where the pace of change is accelerating, the forces driving the world economy are shifting toward different localesones with different values. While this hardly affects individual artists, who are free to pursue their idiosyncratic whims and obsessions, it portends deep impact on the art world and the legacies it has created and continues to cultivate.
The state sponsorship of art salons in 19th century Paris assured collectors and institutions that certain artists and their art were of great value. While the merits of that officially sanctioned and fashionable art have gone in and out of taste with the public, this criteria set certain economic phenomena into action: they made fashionable French painting expensive. Simultaneously, unfashionable (for instance, Impressionist) French painting was a bargain. It was mainly American Industrialists who purchased so much Impressionist painting, giving it the inside track to be acclaimed as important later on, during the American Century. One must credit the bargain, unsanctioned price of Impressionism as much as the eyes of the early capitalists, in landing this art onto the right continent at the dawn of the right era.

Robert Rauschenberg
Encyclopedia Article Find Print E-mail Blog It Multimedia 2 items Robert Rauschenberg , born in 1925, American painter, who played an important role in the transition from abstract expressionism to pop art . Born in Port Arthur, Texas, he studied art in Paris and at several schools in the United States, including Black Mountain College, where he studied under American painter Josef Albers . His early works were boxed studies containing blueprints and paintings in black and white. During the early 1950s he produced collage paintings in which freely brushed expressionist canvases were overlaid with bits and pieces of actual textiles, photographs, and torn newspaper clippings. In 1955, he made his first “combines,” three-dimensional assemblages in which paintings were combined with found images, such as photographs, and objects of popular culture—traffic signs, light bulbs, Coca-Cola bottles, radios—to create ironic or ridiculous effects. The best known of these, Monogram (1955-1959, Moderna Museet, Stockholm), features a stuffed goat with an automobile tire around its middle. These hybrid works, emphasizing mass-production objects, had a strong influence on the pop art movement of the 1960s. After 1962, Rauschenberg experimented with silk-screen prints—first in black and white, later in color—in which repetition of imagery played a strong role. Much of his work during the 1970s and 1980s was devoted to collages, lithographs, and other forms of the graphic arts, including photography.
