An Education Lab Coinciding with Jason Rhoades’ Exhibition ‘DRIVE’
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.
‘‘Going Forward with No Brakes’ is an excellent example of our learning activities. Speaking directly to our community, and in part developed with our local partners, it provides an interactive space that everyone can enjoy.’—Debbie Hillyerd, Senior Director, Learning
The Education Lab is part of Hauser & Wirth’s commitment to inclusive learning programs that instigate a dialogue between art, artists and diverse audiences. Located at our galleries in Menorca, Somerset and Downtown Los Angeles, as well as Chillida Leku museum, each Education Lab is a collaboration with a local community group, school or university. The interactive spaces take their starting point from one of our international artists, facilitating a platform for discovery, discussion and additional resources.
