Description
About the Book
Rauschenberg (1925-2008) shot over 50 rolls of film during his first trip to Beijing in 1982, using the footage to create two major late works, documented here: Study for Chinese Summerhall (1983) and The 1/4 Mile (1981-98).
Book Synopsis
Robert Rauschenberg: Borealis 1988-92 is the first publication dedicated to the Borealis series by Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) and accompanies the eponymous exhibition held at Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, Salzburg, in 2019. The essay by Corinna Thierolf, chief curator of the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, examines the iconography of one of Rauschenberg's most experimental series, for which he silk-screened his own photographs on reflective surfaces such as brass, copper and bronze.
This comprehensive publication documents the exhibition and features other major Borealis works from museum collections. In addition to Thierolf's analysis, each work is accompanied by exclusive source images taken or found by the artist during his prescient global art project, the Robert Rauschenberg Overseas Culture Interchange (ROCI).
