“
I also like seeing people using materials that one
is not accustomed to seeing in art, because I think that has a
particular value. New materials have fresh associations, physical
properties and qualities that have built into them the possibility of
forcing you or helping you do something else. I think it’s more
difficult to constantly be experimental with paint.”

Robert Rauschenberg was born today in 1925. This wonderful quote is from an
audio recording from the Smithsonian
Archives of American Art.
