Sport and Spectator
June 12 - Dec 6, 2026
Sport and Spectator celebrates the dynamic intersection of the visual arts and sports culture, presenting an array of works that transform sports imagery and equipment such as basketballs, helmets, and jerseys into artworks. The exhibition invites viewers to consider how sports shape our society, from their impact on the individual to their broader cultural influences.
Sport and Spectator features works by Brandon J. Donahue-Shipp, Jeffrey Gibson, Raul Rene Gonzalez, Sophie Inard, Brian Jungen, Justin Korver, Betsy Odom, Esmaa Mohamoud, Hank Willis Thomas and Tyrrell Winston. Now at the Nerman Museum, this exhibition is expanded further to include additional artworks from local, national, and international collections and artists, including works by Felipe Barbosa, Sandow Birk, Zoe Buckman, Rob Carter, Benjamin Degen, Awol Erizku, Archie Scott Gobber, Hugh Hayden, Samuel Levi Jones, Esteban Ramón Pérez, and Jake Troyli.
This exhibition, originally on view at the McNay Art Museum, was organized by René Paul Barilleaux, Head of Curatorial Affairs; and Lauren Thompson, Curator of Exhibitions.
