signed and dated lower right: Rauschenberg 82 -
Notes:Rauschenberg's enthusiasm for popular culture and his rejection of the angst and seriousness of the Abstract Expressionists has seen him be accepted as one of America's most influential artists. His experimentation with the use of alternative materials and process has cemented his place in art history. Rauschenberg travelled to China in 1982, and while there, completed the Seven Character series. Light is one of the works from this unique series and explores his experimental ideas within the traditional media of lithography, screen printing, and etching, as well as within less traditional processes that include collage and various direct transfer methods onto fabric or paper.
