I found these works particularly interesting, espessially after todays semiotics lecture. Rauschenbergs' "white painting" were an attempt to remove all narative and context from his works... very much in the perception that it is what it is and nothing more. From his minimalist begings he moved to 3D built works that for the time were quite provocotive incorperating stuffed birds, tyres and general old junk matirials, he was considered a pioneer in american abstract and pop art.Thursday, March 19, 2009

Hey Verena,
Great to see you BLOGGING!
I am hoping however to see comments that relate to the topic area for the week in question.
Rauschenbergs' work relates perfectly to a number of topic areas... such as Art and Abstraction!
