Pérez Art Museum Miami 12:00 AM
PAMM's biggest exhibition of the spring and summer brings together more than 100 works exploring what sports mean beyond the scoreboard: how competition, athleticism and the culture around games shape identity, memory and shared experience. On view through August 23, the show features Ernie Barnes's neighborhood basketball scenes, Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno's real-time portrait of Zinedine Zidane, and Tara Mateik's take on the 1973 Battle of the Sexes, alongside work from Virgil Abloh, Mark Bradford, Glenn Ligon, Catherine Opie, Yinka Shonibare and Hank Willis Thomas, among others. Historic sports memorabilia like vintage Nike sneakers, and original McLaren Racing steering wheels sit alongside contemporary art throughout. Timed to Miami's run of major sporting events this spring, from the Miami Open to Formula 1 to the FIFA World Cup, it's a fitting moment for a museum to ask what the arena actually means. Included with museum admission at PAMM.
