Paying Respect to a Pop Master

One of my favorite American artists, Robert Rauschenberg, passed away yesterday.  There are too many words to describe his work, but if I had to choose one, it would be visionary.

RR has always been one of my favs. I was surprised there was not much news or retrospective coverage about his life back in May.

Maybe you should do a follow up.
