Summary:
"In preparing this highly readable book, Mary Lynn Kotz interviewed nearly everybody who had been important to Rauschenberg over the course of his life. Fresh anecdotes complement those already familiar to Rauschenberg followers, and contributions from the artist further personalize this biography. In this third edition, Kotz provides a look at the ongoing work by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation and today's artists to preserve Raushenberg's legacy. With more than 200 illustrations, Rauschenberg/Art and Life is a richly impressive portrait of the artist. In addition to the scores of works of art reproduced (paintings, combines, floor and wall constructions, prints made at U.L.A.E., and more), are personal photographs of Rauschenberg and his friends and family, creating an intimate portrait of the legend. A special feature of the book are the many reproductions, of his last and most significant work, Rauschenberg Overseas Culture Interchange (ROCI)--a continually evolving body of work developed and exhibited in countries all over the world"--Dust jacket.
