He embodies most of the ideas of this century\'s modern art, yet his powerful, idiosyncratic works are like those of no other artist.Unlike his contemporaries Larry Rivers and Jasper Johns, Rauschenberg\'s restless inventiveness makes his works difficult to categorize. He has always been willing to explore new possibilities, including combining paintings with music or performance and using blueprints, electronics, silkscreen and-most recently-ephemeral materials such as cardboard in his paintings.Rauschenberg \'s work is contradictory. He sees the artist as a participant or reporter rather than a creator, but the stamp of his style and personality is evident in each of his paintings. Though his is an art of the concept, the idea, there is evident enjoyment in his engagement with the medium of expression and the material world. Whatever the judgment of later generations, Robert Rauschenberg is regarded as a tremendously influential force in twentieth-century art.
