Robert Rauschenberg - Erased De Kooning Drawing (1953)

“In 1953 Robert Rauschenberg approached Willem de Kooning with a strange request: he asked for one of de Kooning’s drawings and explained he wanted to erase it. After some persuasion, de Kooning agreed and offered Rauschenberg one of his best pieces of work - one that he would miss to make it more difficult for Rauschenberg to erase. The result has become a cherished work from that period.”
