Author Description

Rauschenberg's work in this exhibition explores the reflective, textural, sculptural and thematic effects of metal, glass and other reflective surfaces. The paintings and sculptures on display vary from the highly polished glamorous metallic works from the Shiner and Borealis series that celebrate energy and motion, to the Kabal American Zephyr and Gluts series which represent Rauschenberg?s fascination with the discarded object. He once stated: I think painting is more like the real world when it is made out of the real world.
