“Spiritual Globe” by Robert Rauschenberg.

With his flag, a global map in the form of hearts, Robert Rauschenberg, leader of contemporary American art, wanted to underline the spiritual dimension of tolerance.
“The globe opens out and becomes a heart resembling the hands Michael Angelo painted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, which unite the creator to his creature. This heart asserts itself as a spiritual organ setting the tempo of life on earth”, explains the artist, who was born in 1925 in the united States.
