Although our experience at MoMA was very rushed, we were still able to see Rauschenberg’s greatest pieces. The taxidermy goat was incredible. The story behind it was just a creative artist who thought putting a tire around goat would represent art without any hidden message. It was so cool to see in person along with his other creative pieces. A quote from him says, “I don’t want a picture to look like something it isn’t. I want it to look like something it is.” I absolutely loved it because some artists leave a painting with a hidden message for the audience to decipher, but Rauschenberg was very straight forward with his work. Another piece I loved was the tire marks on the long strand of paper that a car ran over with ink on the tire. His pieces are creative and intriguing.
