Colored screenprints on plexi ( 10) - on plexi base, in stainless steel box // Opal Gospel by Robert Rauschenberg, created in 1971, is a captivating sculptural piece composed of ten colored screen prints on plexiglass, set on a plexi base within a stainless steel box. This intricate layered artwork features an image of a ram set against a mystical, text-filled background that interweaves poetry and abstract shapes. The transparency of the plexiglass allows viewers to see through multiple layers, creating a dynamic interplay of text and imagery that shifts with perspective. The words, in varying fonts and placements, evoke a contemplative atmosphere, inviting viewers to interpret the blend of visual and literary elements in their own way. Rauschenberg’s innovative use of materials and layering techniques enhances the conceptual depth of the piece, blending nature, language, and abstraction.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
