The genius of Robert Rauschenberg is not only his art itself but his ability to convey not only visually but verbally its meaning. Nothing he does is arbitrary or accidental. He has a reason for it all. Abstract does not imply the piece is created without reason or thought. As I have realized myself and explained to Uncle Nutjob; what I appreciate the most about Robert Rauschenberg is he does not dismiss the often asked question of artists, "What does it mean?". He can tell you because he was fully conscious of his art when he did it and why. Every stroke of the brush has purpose.
...and the guy is damn funny really.
