Rauschenberg (Third Edition): Art and Life by: Mary Lynn Kotz
Hardcover. NY, Abrams, 3rd Ed., 2018, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover with dust jacket, 368 pages, still in publisher's shrink wrap. Iconoclastic, generous, inventive, impulsive, sensitive, gregarious, prodigious: these are just some of the words to describe Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) and the art he made over his career. From the age of 38, when he received the grand prize at the Venice Biennale in 1964, Rauschenberg was a pivotal figure in the creative explosion of art following WWII. This revised edition of the classic biography of the artist adds a new chapter covering the significant moments in the final years of his life, and offers an in-depth look at his legacy and continued influence on the postmodern art world. It includes new photography and interviews with friends, colleagues, critics, and art historians.
