Gallery artist Thomas Agrinier's work is included in the group exhibition art.now.2027: Sports Through Artists’ Eyes at the Hearst Tower in New York. Curated by Betty Levin, Sports Through Artists’ Eyes brings together many artists, working in different media, who are in their own way exploring the visual and emotional features that make sports recognizable and interesting as an artistic subject.
The creative mind is Hearst’s most valued asset. The art.now.2027 exhibit follows the tradition of bold, original shows that have pushed boundaries and inspired the Hearst community.
This year’s show focuses the spotlight on Sports Through Artists’ Eyes.
In 776 BCE, the Olympic Games included sporting as well as art and music competitions. There was a direct connection between sports and art. Exercising both body and mind was considered the ideal way to achieve harmony.
This show includes work across many platforms that transform diverse sports into cutting-edge art forms. This intersection of sports and art is a creative catalyst that will entertain and engage everyone who works in or visits the Hearst Tower on its 20th anniversary.
