In celebration of Jason Rhoades’ exhibition in Los Angeles the Education Lab will host ‘Going Forward with No Brakes,’ an interactive space and series of programs throughout the duration of the exhibition for visitors to consider the significance of car culture in Los Angeles. For Rhoades, cars played an important role in the California artist’s work: as readymade sculptural objects, and as imaginative spaces in which to break, conceptualize, create and converse with others. In the Education Lab, visitors will have access to films and books about cars and transportation and space to respond to the materials and document their own relationships to vehicles. 

This month’s presentation at Frieze Los Angeles coincides with new exhibitions by Catherine Goodman, Jason Rhoades, Pat Steir and our West Coast continuation of RETROaction. 

Join us for openings and events throughout the week:

Sculpture for Jason Rhoades was a question of volume, not only in the sense of taking up space and completely occupying boxes, tubes, beams, electrical appliances, shelves, even video games from bars and so forth and so on, but volume in terms of sound, as in, TURN UP THE FUCKING VOLUME!
