Mémoires

Jason Rhoades, Paul McCarthy

 

“Well, I think the museums that exist today
are totally repressive.” —Jason Rhoades
On the occasion of the performance-installation
“Sheep Plug” by Jason Rhoades at the opening of the
exhibition “Dionysiac” (Centre Georges-Pompidou,
2015 ), the edition made by Jason Rhoades and Paul
McCarthy, (an extended facsimile of Guy Debord’s
book Mémoire, in the form of a wine menu), was
covered with aluminum foil by artists from Royal
Book Lodge disguised as a White Monkey. The
edition is augmented with photographs documenting
the performance and a monkey mask.
