Rauschenberg introduced his unusual "combines" in 1954, marrying gestures of paint with three-dimensional found objects and collaged photographic images.
Rauschenberg's paintings and prints, improvised from objects he would find on any given day, laid the groundwork for Pop art's fascination with commonplace, everyday objects.
