Rauschenberg's Brush Not Erased
M-A APO 50 E100

Color field study of walls, windows, a Kauai mannequin, a film end tab, and Rauschenberg's 1/4 Mile brush, not erased like his "Erased Willem de Kooning Drawing" (1953). On this 100th birthday of Bauhaus, which Leica recognizes with a limited edition CL--what happened to the commemorative Bauhaus M-A?--I used Josef Albers's innovation of the transparency of opaque colors, while notably paying homage to Albers and his Bauhaus photocollages from 1930, shot with his Leica, which included many mannequin collages. The mannequin as a subject made a statement about identity in an emerging world of production-line assembly and was also the focus of Albers's contemporaries--Eugene Atget, Bill Brandt, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, and many others. When Albers and his wife emigrated to the United States in 1933, he taught at the Black Mountain College and many of his students became important artists, among them, Robert Rauschenberg. So, what's more appropriate to restate Rauschenberg's contributions and beginnings from a Bauhaus teacher than a simple paintbrush. Well, perhaps not so simple when we consider that the tool of art becomes the art itself, just as color field study restates the basis for color photography. Of course, we have to give a nod to black-and-white, as well. The restricted palette of grays.

Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

Maybe a striking blonde would be better in the car, but one has to manage with what one has.

That's a really intriguing collage, Rog. Well done! Btw I saw this on Leica Rumours so perhaps we'll be lucky :D
