그림 소개
Robert Rauschenberg made Short Circuit for a Stable Gallery exhibition in 1955; it is in the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago. He invited friends to hide small works inside the cabinet-like construction. Susan Weil’s painting remains behind the right door. Jasper Johns’s flag was lost from the left compartment in 1965; Rauschenberg invited Sturtevant to supply a copy. Other contents include Judy Garland’s autograph, a picture of Lincoln and a postcard of cows grazing. Paint, found images and objects meet within the same construction.
미술관의 설명
Robert Rauschenberg is best known for the “combine,” a hybrid form of painting and sculpture that integrates humble materials, found images, and paint to bridge what he called “the gap between art and life.” Rauschenberg submitted Short Circuit for an annual exhibition at Stable Gallery in 1955. He invited friends to produce small pieces that could be smuggled into the exhibition in his cabinet-shaped construction. A painting by his former wife, artist Susan Weil, appears behind the right door, and a flag composition by Jasper Johns once sat behind the left door. (It went missing in 1965 and was replaced at Rauschenberg’s invitation with a facsimile by the artist Sturtevant.) The work also includes a Judy Garland autograph, an image of Abraham Lincoln, and a postcard of grazing cows, among other items. While Short Circuit captures aspects of a collective American experience, it also ranks among the most personal of Rauschenberg’s combines.

Travels in Italy and North Africa with Cy Twombly
From the autumn of 1952 to the spring of 1953 Rauschenberg travelled in Italy and North Africa with his fellow artist and partner Cy Twombly. There he made collages and small sculptures out of found materials, the “Scatole Personali” (Personal Boxes) and “Feticci Personali” (Personal Fetishes).

Joint show with Cy Twombly at the Stable Gallery

First European exhibition, in Rome
In Italy Rauschenberg was noticed by Irene Brin and Gaspero del Corso, who organised his first European exhibition in their famous gallery in Rome; he also showed in Florence. To his surprise a number of works sold, and many of those that did not he threw into the river Arno, following the suggestion of an art critic who had reviewed his show.
