Description - Rauschenberg by Jurgen Doring
This book collects the complete posters of the famed artist Robert Rauschenberg, in one beautiful volume. Poster-making was well suited to Robert Rauschenberg's artistic temperament. The socially conscious artist appreciated the democratic aspects of reaching out to a wide audience and the opportunity to collaborate with printmakers. Rauschenberg's trademark collage aesthetic, which combines text and imagery, is evident in much of his poster production. A comprehensive volume of Rauschenberg's oeuvre, this beautiful book includes posters for the artist's exhibitions; cultural events in the worlds of dance and music; and important political and social causes. Ninety of Rauschenberg's most important posters are featured in full-page illustrations, while the illustrated catalog contains detailed entries of more than 220 works. AUTHOR: Jurgen Doring is Head of the Graphics and Posters Department at the Museum fur Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg. He is the author of Lichtenstein Posters and Keith Haring Posters (both Prestel). Claus van der Osten is a Hamburg-based art collector. His collection of artists' posters is one of the most comprehensive in the world, and he has donated large parts of it to the Museum fur Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg. 210 colour 10 b/w
