ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG (Texas, USA, 1925 - Florida, USA, 2008). "Goat House (Passes)," 1988. Acrylic and silkscreen ink on handmade paper. Signed at bottom center. Attached certificate issued by Guy Pieters Gallery stating that it is registered with the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation. With labels on the back: - "New York on paper" exhibition, June-October 1993, Galerie Beyeler Basel. - Exhibition "Poetry in Motion", June-September 2007, Galerie Beyeler Basel. - M. Knoedler & Co. Measurements: 55 x 77 cm; 63.5 x 85 x 4 cm (frame). The 1980s marked a period of transformation and experimentation in Robert Rauschenberg's prolific career. After an established career in Neo-Dadaism and Pop Art, the artist embarked on an exploration of new languages, defying expectations with combinations of techniques that integrated painting, printmaking, photography and collage. The result gave the impression of a visual and conceptual palimpsest that in works such as "Goat House" shocks our subconscious and spurs our associative capacity. In these works, Rauschenberg experimented with photographic transfers, incorporating images from everyday reality and the press into his works, questioning the relationship between the real and the imagined. The trellis of the house and the face of an African man challenge us and awaken our critical sense, but the artist plays with metaphor and enigma without trying to communicate a closed idea. Likewise, the allusion to the "goat" in the title could be a nod to his most emblematic work of the fifties, "Monogram", with which he inaugurated his shocking combinatory games. Painter, sculptor and graphic artist, pioneer of pop art in his early works, Robert Rauschenberg worked in all types of media, including photography, engraving and performance. He received outstanding awards such as the National Medal of Art of the United States in 1993, as well as the Leonardo da Vinci World Award of Arts in 1995. He began his career in Pharmacy and joined the Army, but finally decided to devote himself to art, developing his training at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Académie Julian in Paris. Finally he will extend his studies in the Black Mountian College of North Carolina, where he had as a teacher Josef Albers, one of the founders of the Bauhaus. Between 1949 and 1952 Rauschenberg studied with Vaclav Vytlacil and Morris Kantor at the Art Students League in New York, where he met Knox Martin and Cy Twombly. Throughout his career, Rauschenberg's work underwent remarkable changes due to various influences, including Marcel Duchamp. He exhibited his work in leading galleries in the United States and Europe, beginning with his first solo exhibition in 1951. In early 1963 he had his first retrospective exhibition at the Jewish Museum in New York, and the following year he became the first American artist to win the Grand Prize at the Venice Biennale. More recently, he has had retrospectives at prominent venues such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, and has also held exhibitions at MoMA in New York, the Tinguely Museum in Basel, and others. He is currently represented at the Guggenheim Museums in New York, Berlin and Bilbao, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Metropolitan and MoMA in New York, the Tate Gallery in London and other important collections around the world.
