Once described by critic Jerry Saltz as “orgies of narrative–Nevada’s celebrated Chicken Ranch brothel crossed with Wal-Mart and Kurt Schwitters’ Merzbau,” the libidinously sprawling installations of Jason Rhoades (1965-2006) met cultural overproduction head-on, with a savage fervor comparable only to that of Rhoades’ onetime teacher at UCLA, Paul McCarthy. His work encompassed excess and contradiction: “To juggle the impossible was always an issue throughout my work–to take three objects, like a rubber ball, a chain saw and a live African elephant, and try to juggle,” he declared. Rhoades’ last project, Black Pussy Soiree Cabaret Macrame, was a series of private social events involving massive sculptural installations in [Read More...]

Review

This lovely coffee table book illustrates the plight of wild horse herds throughout Western America and focusing on the Southwestern corner of Wyoming. There is excellent material for everyone interested in the subject. First are the gorgeous pictures which portray the wide variety of wild horses. Although there are the expected telephoto pictures, what is far more impressive are the close-up shots, This author/photographer is an extraordinarily brave lady. She actually got out and walked amongst the herds, sitting down on the ground in front of them, even when concerned herd stallions came charging up to a stop five feet in front of her. They could have easily trampled her to death. She has to have nerves of steel an [Read More...]
