Rauschenberg was born in Texas and originally studied pharmacy in college. After serving in World War II, he studied art at the Black Mountain College in North Carolina under Josef Albers (from 1948-49). He also studied at the Art Students League in New York City. Betty Parsons Gallery in New York sponsored his first one-man exhibit in 1951.
In the early 1950s, he traveled to North Africa, Italy and Spain. At this time, he started to combine the techniques of the Action Painters, using found objects. These he termed combine paintings, others labeled them Neo-Dada. He wanted them to dramatize the quotidian in a spontaneous manner. He hoped the unstudied use of color would act as an opposition to rational, linear thinking.
Rauschenberg designed stage sets for the avant-garde choreographers John Cage and Merce Cunningham in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the mid-1960s, he formed the EAT group. EAT was motivated by a desire to combine cutting edge technology with art.
Also in the 1960s, Rauschenberg met Andy Warhol and was enthralled by his use of silk-screen and other original reproductive techniques. Rauschenberg claimed that his critically-acclaimed Stoned Moon (1969) series was an homage to the excitement of the Apollo 11 Space Program.
In the 1980s and 1990s he continued to use innovative techniques, but he had moved from New York City to Captiva Island, Florida. He taught at local colleges and inspired many contemporary young artists.
