One of America's most important artists, Robert Rauschenberg consistently fuses painting, found art, photography and printing in his works. This book brings together 60 of Rauschenburg's most exciting posters. Arranged thematically and chronologically, the posters display the full range of Rauschenberg's stylistic development from the 1960s to the 1990s. Since 1963 the artist has been designing posters to advertise his own exhibitions, music and dance performances, and to address sociopolitical issues. This volume features full page, colour reproductions that allow the viewer to truly appreciate the complexity, ambiguity and incredible scope of Rauschenberg's oeuvre.

Review
"Rauschenberg offers a provocative, contrarian view of what a poster might be and, as a result, has extended the possibilities and purpose of the medium."

Just to let you know...,
This review is from: Rauschenberg Posters (German Edition) (Paperback)
I was hesitant to order this because it is listed as being the "German Edition" and I can't read German. However, there were plenty being offered here used, and got a copy for just a few bucks. I figured at worst, I would just look at the pictures. The few pages of text are bi-lingual, so German on one side and the corresponding English on the other side of the page. Not only that, but great full-color reproductions of 67 posters, an informative introduction, timeline, and even a few smaller non-poster reproductions. Great for anybody interested in posters, Rauschenberg, communication theory, or graphic design. ISBN 3-7913-2698-8.

Less than expected,

This review is from: Rauschenberg Posters (German Edition) (Paperback)
Addressing the Rauschenberg posters, I had expected more on the earlier years, particularly the civil rights posters and processes, and I was disappointed. But that not withstanding, you will find much rich material and insights which make this books worth owning.
