With a deliberate disregard for both
the conventional photographic subject and point - and - shoot role of the camera, Barth's work delicately deconstructs conventions of visual representation by calling our attention to the limits of the human eye.
With incisiveness, ingenuity, and humor, Rauschenberg changed the course of art history by establishing new genres of sculpture — found object, environmental, theatrical,
photographic, and filmic — by including a wide range of contemporary
subjects, and by using non-fine art materials along with
conventional ones.
