Rauschenberg the Talking head

This record " Speaking in Tongues " (1983) is the result of a narrow collaboration between the Artist Robert Rauschenberg and the group The Talking heads.

It consists of a colored transparent Vinyl and independent and mobile celluloids with images printed in yellow, magenta and cyan, as printer's primary charter.
This Rauschenberg's work is not an illustration added simply to the disk, it makes of the disk a real work of art.


The Talking heads and Rauschenberg form, therefore, a  complementary whole.

Dear Olga
Genteel and persistent too, in my opinion.
Sometimes, I see his inheritance everywhere.
In the street, the métro, the city...
An amazing work wich brooms or erases...

Thank you
