- This monograph draws upon extensive primary research conducted between 2006 and 2016. The first comprehensive study of Rauschenberg’s acclaimed Dante illustrations, the book’s foundation was the discovery of hundreds of the mass media source images from which the ‘solvent transfer’ drawings were made. The research involved scouring every edition of the New York Times, Time, Life, Newsweek and several other magazines over a three-year period, searching for the specific images Rauschenberg selected. These discoveries enabled bold new interpretations and prompted wide-ranging methodological reflections regarding the relationship between art and everyday life, and between art history, literature and psychoanalysis.
