CURRENT EXHIBITION (LEVEL 5)
Robert Rauschenberg and Asia
16 JUNE – 1 NOVEMBER 2026
Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008, U.S.A) is widely acknowledged as one of the most innovative and influential artists of the twentieth century. His work foreshadowed many major developments in post-war art such as Pop Art, Conceptual Art, and installation art. His experimental practice redefined what an art object could be, incorporating everday items and mass media images into his works, and blurring the line between painting and sculpture. This exhibition, organised by M+ in collaboration with ILHAM Gallery, marks the first comprehensive exploration of the artist's many projects in Asia, and forms a key part of the worldwide celebration of his centennial in 2025.
