Catalogue Note

"Rauschenberg's inimitable way of perceiving his environment, translated into tangible form and distinctive pictorial expression, for example, is less a technique than a subliminal adjustment to modern life itself..." – Sam Hunter ("Robert Rauschenberg: Art and Life," Robert Rauschenberg: Works, Writings, Interviews, Barcelona, 2007, p. 9)
