  • This film on Robert Rauschenberg at Tate Modern shows how the artist worked across printing, photography, painting, assemblage, technology and performance. He remains one of the most influential American artists of the 20th Century whose achievement is still visible in contemporary art. He claimed to be working in the gap between art and life and links historic Dada artists like Marcel Duchamp and Kurt Schwitters with artists working today. The exhibition runs at Tate Modern before transferring to the Museum Of Modern Art in New York City.

    I grew up with Mr. Rauschenberg. My dad was one of his photographers. He photographed finished pieces for books, insurance and archival reasons. Being around him was intoxicating even as a young boy. You just couldn't get enough of him. To watch him create history was an absolute treat.

      @@alamedvav no there’s a story behind it. He was visiting a country (don’t remember which one) and he saw this goat that he liked and bought it. As he was trying to bring it through customs they wouldn’t let it come through because of some law (again I can’t remember the details). So mr Rauschenberg tied a handkerchief around its neck and said “now it’s art” and it was allowed through. It went through several phases before it became what you see today. Mr Rauschenberg wasn’t much for drugs, but he did enjoy his alcohol.

    Rauschenberg is so inspirational. I only discovered his work recently and the idea of taking objects from ordinary mundane life to form combines is exciting, the ultimate collage making.

    I went to see it today, the last day. He is a very interesting artist. I can't quite work him out, but he has elements I love. A continuing mystery is important for an artist to possess. A lot of art disappoints me, whereas Rauschenberg's does not.

    Thankyou so much for another great insightful video. I like to think of those bubbles unexpectedly bursting and popping through the mud surface as a description of Rauschenberg's creativity. I see in his work the aesthetics of street art, Basquiat and hip hop. Your description of his generosity of spirit is striking, work that is not necessarily about expensive fabrication but of the energy that comes from the street up,

    I see Rauschenberg as someone who celebrates the idea of progress in the spheres of politics and technology. He enjoys that we are now able to bend nature to the will of mankind. Very optimistic.

    Very interesting to see what my competitions been upto. What their best shots have been. And this video has given me even more confidence.
    Many of the abstract group of artists can't draw to save their lives. It's true.
    Now they may provide entertainment to somebody at a loose end, and it might make a change from a crossword puzzle I suppose.
    But where's the humour ? Where's the topicality ? Where's the beauty, Where's the talent, ? Where's the skill, the craftsmanship ? Where's the artist persona showing through.
    Well if there's any of that, he's hidden it from view extremely well
    OK, let's think of something that's not been done before, something to get me noticed. I'm a good talker. In fact, I can talk the hind leg off a donkey and I've always been afraid of getting up in the morning and going to work, so I'll chance my hand at something outrageous, something that will give ME publicity
    I know, I'll buy that stuffed sheep I saw in the shop down the road and I've been trying to find a use for that tyre for ages but it still looks a bit drab. I know, I dab a bit of yellow and red paint on it's nose. That should do the trick. Now I've got to find a gallery who'll sell it to an "art lover" for big money, and then I'm OK for a few months and don't need to think about getting a proper job
    Ask yourself this question. Would you employ this Rauschenberg guy to paint your garden gate ?
    Yes, you're correct. I am having a pop at Rauschenberg's work. Horror of horrors ! How dare you !
    Well I say, if you're an artist, and your selling your work or displaying it in the public domain, then you've got to put your big boy pants on and cope with it. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen
    Now I've produced far better stuff, and it's for sale, and you can criticise it and that's OK. What's source for the goose is source for the gander

      @@evanjones5664 What kind of lunatic would feel something from this kinds of work? What do you feel exactly? Art is not just about feeling, if it is, that proves my point that a shit smeared canvas may be qualified as art. Art is conveying a message with the standards set up by masters of different generations. Quality art from previous masters and hyperrealists today convey messages and make you "feel" the art with talent and skill gained from countless nights of practice. As I said, critiques only approve these kinds of work to please the market of other artists and to get a higher demand of effortless art.

      The goat piece was a tongue in cheek statement of sodomy and homosexuality, kind of like a goat RAMMING through the tire, such as a penis penetrating an anus. In this point of his career, it is believed that Bobs homosexuality became a more prominent thing in his life.
