The exhibition history prepared by Mary Lynn Kotz for Robert Rauschenberg: A Retrospective (New York: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, 1997) has been revised and updated by Helen Hsu, with additional research by Amanda Sroka. The online version of the exhibition history is continually updated by Foundation staff and curatorial interns.

Exhibitions have been divided into Solo and Two-Person exhibitions and Group exhibitions, and entries include exhibition catalogues and brochures, as well as selected related articles and reviews by date of publication.
