Erwin Heerich was a German artist.
Heerich emphasized that for him, "cardboard, like polystyrene, had no specifically aesthetic or historical connotations, the materials are value-neutral to the largest possible extent." Furthermore, the artist was not primarily "concerned with the manifestation of an art object, but with making an idea material in terms of a specific problem: how space can be presented and formed."

Robert Milton Ernest Rauschenberg was an American artist renowned for his pioneering work that blurred the boundaries between painting and sculpture, thereby anticipating the Pop art movement. From his early days at the Art Students League of New York to his experiments at Black Mountain College, Rauschenberg's career was marked by innovation and collaboration. His "Neo-Dadaist" approach, shared with contemporaries like Jasper Johns, questioned traditional distinctions between art objects and everyday items, drawing inspiration from Marcel Duchamp's Dadaist principles.
Rauschenberg's most notable works, such as "Erased de Kooning Drawing" and his "Combines," utilized found materials and images to create new art forms that challenged viewers' perceptions. His use of non-traditional materials like twine, soil, and even taxidermied animals, alongside traditional canvas and paint, set new precedents for what could be considered art. His groundbreaking silkscreen paintings incorporated found images, further cementing his role in the evolution toward Pop art.
The artist's work is represented in major museums and galleries worldwide, reflecting his significant impact on contemporary art. His pieces like "Canyon" and "Monogram" are celebrated for their innovative integration of sculpture and painting, while "Signs" captures the tumultuous spirit of the 1960s through its collage of cultural figures and events, housed in institutions like the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego, and The Minneapolis Institute of Arts.
For collectors and experts in art and antiques, Rauschenberg's oeuvre represents a critical junction in the history of modern art, where the lines between different media and disciplines were explored and often erased. His legacy is not just in the objects he created but in his bold reimagining of the art-making process itself, encouraging a dialogue between art and life that continues to inspire artists today.
