JASPER JOHNS, TARGET WITH FOUR FACES, WOOD, CANVAS, ENCAUSTIC, NEWSPAPER AND PLASTER 1955

As Johns explained, the imagery derives from "things the mind already knows," utterly familiar icons such as flags, targets, stenciled numbers, ale cans, and, slightly later, maps of the U.S.

assemblauge: recombining (assembling) “stuff” to create new meaning.

created “combines”combining painting with sculpture

“There is no no more subject in a combine [By Rauschenberg] than there is in a page from a newspaper. Each thing that is there is a subject. It is a situation involving multiplicity.” – John Cage

*found materials in trash – recontextualization

*viewers should find their own meaning

Rauschenberg, Odalisk, 1955-58

"Every time I would show them to people, some would say they're paintings, others called them sculptures. And then I heard this story about Calder," he said, referring to the artist Alexander Calder, "that nobody would look at his work because they didn't know what to call it. As soon as he began calling them mobiles, all of a sudden people would say 'Oh, so that's what they are.' So I invented the term 'Combine' to break out of that dead end of something not being a sculpture or a painting. And it seemed to work."

Odalisk combines oil paint, watercolor, crayon, pastel, paper, fabric, photographs, printed reproductions, miniature blueprint, newspaper, metal, glass, dried grass, steel wool, a pillow, a wooden post and lamps on a wooden structure mounted on four casters and topped by a stuffed rooster.

Rauschenberg, Estate, 1963oil, silk screen, collage

• primary colors

recognizable images

vs.

everyday images

Rauschenberg aimed in the silk-screened paintings “to make a surface which invited a constant change of focus and an examination of detail.”

Robert Rauschenberg Collage ProjectThis project is inspired by the collage techniques and visual aesthetics of Robert Rauschenberg and Richard Hamilton. You will need to consider what images are most iconic to the 21st century (Presidents, celebrities, electronics, politics, religions, etc.). Using only newspapers and magazines, create a collage in the style of Retroactive I & Retroactive II that speaks directly to life in 2014.

Requirements: 1. Use only images from newspapers and magazines: you may need to bring

some from home…2. Project must include primary colors from oil pastels, paint, colored pencils,

etc.3. The collage must be unique and creative (think about placement of images,

texture, cropping, etc.)4. Size must be 8.5 x 11 (printer paper size)5. We will work in class tomorrow and present the following day

Andy Warhol famously told Art News interviewer Gene Swenson, "The reason I'm painting this way is that I want to be a machine, and I feel that whatever I do and do machine-like is what I want to do."

Warhol "was not after a picture-perfect, sharp-edged result; he wanted the trashy immediacy of a tabloid news photo."
