...where he and contemporaries Lucio Fontana and Piero Manzoni forged their own unique style to grab attention from the American and French modernists then in vogue. It was the burlap paintings that first drew the attention of American art critics to Burri in the early '50s; a young Robert Rauschenberg came to Rome to watch him work. "To his peers, Burri was seen as an absolutely crucial figure to the Italian art scene," says Matthew Gale, curator of a new exhibition at London's Tate Modern dedicated to Burri, Fontana and Manzoni. Growing increasingly disenchanted with the international art scene...
...York City, where nearly the whole of the Guggenheim Museum has been given over to "Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated): Art from 1951 to the Present." While that show focuses mainly on the same crucial years as MOCA's, it also looks back to earlier prototypes--Robert Rauschenberg's all-white paintings, Ad Reinhardt's all-black ones--and forward to more recent artists who have slyly adapted what Minimalism first offered...
Artist Robert Rauschenberg's cover collage encapsulating the loss and sorrow of 9/11 met with a mixed reaction. Complained a Rhode Islander: "It looks like a freshman design project; all its bits and pieces make no impact."

I think his collage, with its layering of news photos and flowers, preserves the moment beautifully. I hope you agree...
...most pointed criticism of Davis is that his creativity, like that of Robert Rauschenberg (another pop collagist), is invested in process rather than results. Listen to his music casually, and you wonder: What does DJ Shadow have to say for himself? But focus on the voices he chooses to speak for him on The Private Press: there's the woman dictating a letter home, the giddy record collector discussing his tape collection, a kid asking to be told a story, the egoist who declares, "And now...eternity!" as somber keys take him away to some sad netherworld. Not everyone will...
