"Up to his untimely death in 2006 at age 41, Jason Rhoades carried out a continuous assault on aesthetic conventions and the rules governing the art world—wryly subverting those very conditions by using them as materials for his work. In 2002, Rhoades introduced the world to his "PeaRoeFoam," a "brand new product and revolutionary new material" created from whole green peas, fish-bait style salmon eggs, and white virgin-beaded foam. When combined with non-toxic glue, they transform into a versatile, fast-drying, and ultimately hard material that he intended for both utilitarian as well as artistic uses—his detailed step-by-step instructions accompanied do-it-yourself kits complete with everything needed to make "PeaRoeFoam." Rhoades debuted his "PeaRoeFoam" project at David Zwirner in 2002 (then located on Greene Street in SoHo) in the first of a trilogy of exhibitions that also brought it to Vienna and Liverpool the same year. Following the original "PeaRoeFormance" at the gallery, the artist moved the equipment to the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien (MUMOK) in Vienna, where he added a makeshift karaoke studio, and then to the Liverpool Biennial, where he continued the production inside a giant, inflatable pool the shape and color of a human liver. "PeaRoeFoam" continued to be appropriated for subsequent works, but the majority of the leftovers and objects from all three "PeaRoeFormances" found a new place in Rhoades's studio. Arranged on shelves covering the full length of a large wall, they remained on the location until after the artist's death. The entirety of the installation, never previously shown, was exhibited as part of the comprehensive presentation of the "PeaRoeFoam" project at David Zwirner in New York in 2014. This seminal publication is the first to properly examine and situate "PeaRoeFoam" within Rhoades's career and to acknowledge its importance within the overall framework of his practice. The 2014 exhibition at David Zwirner presented many of the individual components for the first time since their original installations, and this book discusses and reproduces those initial presentations in depth. Also included is an abundance of archival documents and photographs, installation views of all 2002 shows, as well as the artist's diagrams and drawings. The publication also features a personal and revealing essay by David Zwirner, who began showing Rhoades's work in the early 1990s, new scholarship by Julien Bismuth, and selected interviews from the Jason Rhoades Oral History project, conceived by Dylan Kenny and Lucas Zwirner, who have interviewed over fifty artists, curators, friends, collaborators, art historians, and others who intimately knew the artist—including curator and art historian Linda Norden.".…

"This work presents the official Danish contribution to the 1999 Venice Biennale, the aim of which is to "create a common place in a common time". The representatives of two nations (the American Jason Rhoades and the Danish artist Peter Bonde) aim to create a common culture and artistic space. This work documents the joint project, in which the artists transform the pavilion in Venice into a stock car course with real American stock cars, sound effects and film projections" - publisher's description.
