I meet Rauschenberg when I was in high school, he spoke to a small group of us, it was 10 am in the morning and his breath reeked of scotch. He hit me in the head with a rolled up newspaper.
At least he didn't hit on me.
Salut Robert Rauschenberg! I like your work!

Holy crap!
I've never envied being popped in the dome before this moment...
Salut, Robt.! You are one of the best things to ever come out of the Marine Corps.
You did great things with tires. And made more art than any other American artist that I can think of at the moment.

Salut! I loved his work. Also, Factum I and II make you stop doing De Kooning type work at art school once you've read that Baudrillard essay, which is no bad thing, if you're me.
