Robert Rauschenberg, the amazingly prolific American artist who was instrumental in reshaping 20th century art, has died the age of 82. Rauschenberg was a major icon in contemporary art; he was a painter, photographer, printmaker, choreographer, on-stage performer, set designer and, during his later years, even a composer. Mr. Rauschenberg challenged the traditional idea that an artist had to stick with one particular medium or style.

Rauschenberg initially attended The Kansas City Art Institute, later studying at both the historic, experimental Black Mountain College (NC) and at The Art Students League (NYC).

This article also includes photographs, a video and a wonderful gallery of Rauschenberg's paintings.
