Robert Rauschenberg ushered in a new era of postwar American art in the wake of Abstract Expressionism. Rauschenberg’s approach was sometimes called “Neo Dadaist,” a label he shared with the painter Jasper Johns, and was quoted as saying that he wanted to work “in the gap between art and life.” His Combine works (1954 to early 1960s) blurred the distinctions between painting and sculpture, as their flat surfaces were augmented with discarded materials and appropriated images. Rauschenberg also worked with photography, printmaking, papermaking, and performance, the last of which resulted in a number of collaborations with choreographers, including Merce Cunningham, Paul Taylor, and Trisha Brown.

ROLAND ITEN® UNIQUE BUCKLE CALIBRE, “TEST-DRIVEN” BY SYLVESTER STALLONE ROLAND ITEN® Unique Buckle Calibre, “Test-driven” and certified Sylvester Stallone Roland Iten invented the world’s first mechanically performing belt buckle calibre in 2003. Using Swiss watchmaking machinery and employing over 100 mechanical parts in precious metals, the R8 Mark I Collection earned him the title as ‘pioneer of mechanical luxury’ - a segment in fine watch- making and jewelry within which he remains today the most serious con- tender. Fascinated by the belt buckle designs of the Swiss Military, Roland created a double-pronged tang and used it to modify the R8 Mark I Piece No. 079, hence creating a “proof of concept” piece for a newly evolved series – The R8 Mark II Double Ardillon Collection. The “R8 Mark II Concept Piece” is a solid white gold and titanium me- chanical buckle calibre set with 9 TW VVS+ conflict-free diamonds.
