Robert Rauschenberg on “Erased de Kooning”
It’s not a negation, it’s a celebration. It’s just an idea.
This is so wonderful. It really adds to the actual exchange that occurred between the artists, and relays the difficulty of removing de Kooning’s work. In that sense the process of erasing (that took a month to do!) is a strange commemoration, a unique way to be involved with the mark making of another great artist/peer. A very interesting way of having their works meet on one plane (or surface/piece of paper).
And to think O’Hara described him as enfant terrible of the New York School, hah!
