Robert Rauschenberg

Soviet American Array VII
1988–1991

A colorful collage featuring a variety of images arranged in a grid pattern. The top section displays a faded image of a tall, spire-topped building in purple hues. Adjacent to it are smaller images depicting industrial scenes. Below, a vibrant red Ferris wheel contrasts with a pink-toned image of people climbing stairs. The middle row shows a blue-toned urban decay scene, a cyan ornate gate, and a yellow floral pattern. The bottom row includes a pink architectural detail, a central image with a large arrow and figures in yellow, and a green-tinted image of cabbages. The final image in the bottom right corner shows a wheel amidst rubble in green. The artwork is signed and numbered at the bottom.
