What defines Rauschenberg’s 'Combines' style seen in Allegory?
'Combines' are works that hybridize painting and sculpture by incorporating non-traditional materials and found objects. Allegory (1960) showcases this technique, breaking the flat plane of the canvas to integrate life with art.
Why is the 1960 Allegory significant in art history?
Created at the height of the Neo-Dada movement, Allegory represents Rauschenberg’s departure from pure Abstract Expressionism. It paved the way for Pop Art by utilizing everyday textures and challenging the definition of fine art materials.
