In 2002 a major retrospective of Rivers' work was held at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.

However, his daughters Gwynne and Emma objected to one particular film being displayed, as it depicts them naked as young children The film's purpose is supposedly to be a documentation on their growth through puberty, but it was made without their consent. The matter was addressed in the December 2010 issue of the magazine Vanity Fair, and the October 2010 issue of Grazia.The film will never be publicly displayed as requested by both children.
