Digital Drawing Project: (or) Luminiferous Aether
In his essay “Other Criteria” Leo Steinberg credits Robert Rauschenberg with transformation of the picture plane from Nature to Culture by use of superimposed images, not painted but printed, comprising one step removed historical references to art, unimaginable in modernism. Where Rauschenberg copied pre-modern paintings (Venus and Olympia), these digital drawings reference or copy modernism. Digital drawings enact one (additional) step of removal from printed images. And, from what Steinberg called Rauschenberg’ flatbed (printing press), transforming the picture plane from Nature to Culture to Luminiferous Aether(a 19th century medium for the propagation of light).
