Abstract

Cole Graham’s article “Inefficient, Unsustainable, and Fragmentary: The Rauschenberg Combines as Disabled Bodies” prompts us to consider disability as one of the precarious, suspended, and contradictive subversion zones that this volume explores. Framed through the lens of a cultural-critical disability model he calls sitpoint theory, Graham demonstrates how Robert Rauschenberg's Combines disrupt spatial, bodily, and sociocultural hegemonies, thus challenging existing ableist power structures and introducing the potential for new ways of living that do not center around conventional notions of ability. What if we were to apply Graham’s sitpoint theory to other modalities of disability or neurodivergence?
