Iconoclastic, generous, impulsive, gregarious: these are just some of the words to describe Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) and the art that he made in the course of his career. Updating her 1990 biography, Mary Lynn Kotz discusses the final years of his life, offering an in-depth look at his legacy and continued influence on the postmodern art world. Displaying the astonishing dexterity and range of Rauschenberg's art, color illustrations appear throughout, and the text is bolstered by interviews with friends, colleagues, critics, and art historians.
