Off the Wall: A Portrait of Robert Rauschenberg
I should make a shelf for all the art books I have read to try to school myself on the subject. Even though I know that's not the most effective way to learn, I find myself reading lots of artist bios because I feel terribly guilty that I know so little about art.
This one, though, turned out to be something different than the traditional bio. It's really more about the intersection of art (Robert Rauschenberg), music (John Cage), and dance (Merce Cunningham). It's like the biographical equivalent to my favorite quote--'Art doesn't happen in a vacuum."
