Solo and Two-Person Exhibitions

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.

Traveling exhibitions that have not yet concluded their scheduled tours include the text "additional venues pending" and will be updated at the conclusion of the tour. 

Unless otherwise noted, exhibitions were held at institutions open to the general public. Entries marked with an asterisk (*) indicate private research-oriented exhibitions.
