David Levinthal: Curveball – Sports and American Myths

January 11, 2024 - March 23, 2024

Populated with toy figurines of quintessential sports icons, this exhibit of large-format Polaroid photographs captures some of the most iconic moments in the history of baseball through the lens of celebrated artist David Levinthal’s signature dioramas. Paired with a historical collection from the Avron B. Fogelman Sports Museum, this exhibit looks at the mythical place held by baseball and other sports within American culture. Fundamentally, Levinthal is a collector. He gathers Americana- toys and tchotchkes representing American identity – and photographs them in constructed worlds. He meticulously pursues archetypal topics from his childhood that he examines with analytical research reinforced by his education at Stanford Opening reception: Jan. 11, 2024. 6:30 pm
