Get in the Game: Sports, Art, Culture
Celebrate the love of the game from the Olympics to Little League
The roar of the stadium. The green of the field. A held breath erupting into victory—or defeat.
Is it any wonder that sports inspire artists? With our latest exhibition, Get in the Game: Sports, Art, Culture, experience how today’s artists and designers respond to the drive, passion, culture, and systems surrounding games—and who gets to play them.
From the Olympics to the local recreation league, through Get in the Game you’ll experience how some of our most iconic images have been formed and unforgettable human stories have played out in the world of sports.
Sports icons and everyday athletes alike are celebrated in this thrilling exhibition. You’ll have the opportunity to discover the depth of swimmer Diana Nyad’s determination through an unexpected portrait angle; feel the pressure faced by tennis champion Billie Jean King through a reenactment of her legendary Battle of the Sexes match; and celebrate Arkansas-born Scottie Pippin’s legacy as an NBA superstar and cultural icon in lustrous ceramic.
Organized by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, this exhibition taps into the spirit of sports through art, design, and interactive experiences. It’s time to get in the game!
