Review

...impossibly rich and rewarding.--Adrian Searle "The Guardian "

...impossibly rich and rewarding.--Adrian Searle -The Guardian -

It's impossible not to feel once again that we still need Rauschenberg with us, now more than ever.--Eliza Williams "Creative Review "

Rauschenberg was a harbinger of the 21st-century artist--Ben Luke "The Art Newspaper "

Offering both a complete overview and fresh perspective of the momentous artist, nearly everything that Rauschenberg tackled in his career is included here, including his printmaking, photography, and famous silkscreen paintings. His extraordinary artistic range will keep him in the forefront of modern art for years to come, and this book is a fitting artifact to document his legacy.--Devon Ivie "Interview "

Reaffirms [Rauschenberg's] seminal role in laying the foundation of today's contemporary art practice--Angela M. H. Schuster "Art + Auction "

The breadth of his vision is mind-opening--Rachel Campbell-Johnston "The Times "

Robert Rauschenberg's Sixties riot is the show of the year--Mark Hudson "The Telegraph "

Some artists leave an important mark; only a handful deliver the kind of legacy handed down by Robert Rauschenberg, the twentieth century's art-gospel-spreading, medium-challenging, style-switching creative Johnny Appleseed.--Christian Viveros-Faune "The Village Voice "

Art, to him, for better and worse, was not just something you made. It was something you did.--Deborah Solomon "The New York Times "

the forerunner of essentially every Postwar movement since Abstract Expressionism--Neene Mythos "Wide Walls "

Robert Rauschenberg considers the entire range of the artist's production, more so than previous catalogues have.--Christopher Lyon "Bookforum "

The magic of Rauschenberg's work is that it doesn't matter if it's a piece of crumpled metal or a highly polished silkscreen; it's his voice that comes through, in color, line, proportion and attitude.--Mary Gregory "Our Town "

The example of his nimble intelligence and zestful audacity affected the sense of vocation--thoughts and motives, doubts and dreams--of subsequent generations, to this day.--Peter Schjeldahl "The New Yorker "

...art as rich, perplexing and permission-giving to other artists as anything the 20th century offered.--Holland Cotter "The New York Times "

Substantial... The publication deserves particular mention as an integral part of the show's achievement, as it does much to synthesize and extend a wide range of recent scholarship on Rauschenberg's work.--Luke Skrebowski "Artforum "
