Offset lithograph in colors with collage on wove paper. Signed in pencil, dated and numbered. Published by Multiples, Inc., with the blinstamp of the printer, Styria Studio, New York. Robert Rauschenberg’s People Have Enough Trouble Without Being Intimidated by an Artichoke (1979) is an offset lithograph with collage that reflects his signature approach to layering imagery and meaning. In this work, photographs, textures, and fragments from art history and popular culture are assembled in a loosely structured grid. The title, characteristically ironic and playful, hints at Rauschenberg’s belief that art should be accessible and unpretentious. The piece blends vibrant yet faded colors with both photographic and illustrative elements, encouraging open-ended interpretation. Created during a period when Rauschenberg explored the boundaries of printmaking, this work exemplifies his use of everyday imagery to evoke complexity and connection.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
