On the occasion of the late artist’s first major show in LA, ‘Jason Rhoades. Installations, 1994 – 2006’ , a screening of documentary footage captured by the artist during the installation of ‘Perfect World’ followed by an in-depth discussion of the mythic work was held at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles.
