Hauser Wirth & Schimmel Opens Major Jason Rhoades Survey in Los Angeles

Last week, Hauser Wirth & Schimmel opened Jason Rhoades’ first major survey in Los Angeles, “Installations, 1994-2006.” Before his untimely passing at 41 in 2006, Rhoades established a successful career first in L.A., before gaining great recognition in Europe and New York. Rhoades’ Maximalist works brought on conversation about impolite and sometimes culturally frowned-upon subject matter, making him a both a controversial and moving creator. With this exhibition, Hauser Wirth & Schimmel carries on the artist’s message that the world is a lustful universe, and an infinite place for expressive opportunity.
