...SoHo as well, is too big, too profuse, too sprawling--too damned much all round--to take in with any sort of ease. Curated by Walter Hopps and Susan Davidson, its bulk (some 400 works in all media) creates the fatigued impression that everything in Rauschenberg's vast and uneven output has been dumped into the hopper and left for the individual viewer to sort out.

Reflecting all of the off-putting frankness and none of the feistiness of his carefully sculpted press persona, Stone treated the audience to an uneven but occasionally fascinating hour and a half...
