About this Item
First Edition. Staple-bound octavo. Published on the occasion of Jason Rhoades' second exhibition at David Zwirner ("Deviations in Space," Mar. 22-Apr. 26, 1997), in which the artist occupied the entire gallery with his Spaceball sculpture. This zine, which operates as an aesthetic glossary-supplying Rhoades' definitions for such terms as aversion, diversion, perversion, universion, the brown box, theoretical sculpture, and universal theories-appears to supplement the claim in the Zwirner press release that "the use of abstract terms and concepts in everyday life and language, and the curious absence of clear definitions for these terms, informs parts of Rhoades' new work." Illustrated with a number of black-and-white studio images and concluding with a reproduction of Rhoades' astrological chart. A fine copy, with titles printed to acetate covers, stapled over color illustrated wrappers. Rare. Seller Inventory # 30346
