Night Shades and Phantoms : Robert Rauschenberg
Thaddaeus Ropac gallery in Mayfair, London presents influential American artist Robert Rauschenberg's early 1990's series of paintings Night Shades and Phantoms composed of silk screen photographic images made during his decade long experimentations on metals, with aluminium surfaces featured prominently characterised by a grayscale palette of mirrored and ethereal translucency...creating dreamlike imagery which appears and disappears as a result of light, reflection and shadows the large scale pieces distort the viewers perception by responding to their surroundings!
