Catalogue Note
Tribute 21 comprises a series of 21 artworks celebrating 21 humanitarian themes for the 21st century. The project was conceived by Felissimo and developed by Rauschenberg. Each print is dedicated to a person who embodies each theme and whose contributions will positively affect the 21st century. 21 sets were donated to museums and other institutions, selected on the basis of social impact. Rauschenberg added a 22nd print 'Happiness (Felissimo)' to complete the set.
