The Rauschenberg Scores

During January and February 2016 the artist Danny McCarthy was invited to work as “Artist In Residence” with The Rauschenberg Foundation in Captiva Florida along with fellow “The Quiet Club” member Mick O’Shea. The residency was housed in Robert Rauschenberg Studio’s and estate. While there, the artists had full access to all the studio’s facilities including Rauschenberg’s own piano which Cage, Tudor etc. had performed on. In the studios were the work tables used by Rauschenberg when he lived and worked there. These tables were marked, scored and coloured by Rauschenberg himself as he made his own work.
