Episode 35: Emily Stamey and To the Hoop

Emily Stamey is the curator of exhibitions at the Weatherspoon Art Museum at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. For this episode, we discussed her current exhibition To the Hoop, which is made up of art work produced by over 20 artists in response to basketball. The pieces vary in their subject matter, some related to the objects used in the game, some related to social issues tried to the game and some are about  the spirituality of the game. I am very grateful to Emily for coming on the podcast to discuss the development of the exhibition and if any of you listening are near Greensboro, NC in the coming months, please check out the show. It will be up until June 7. To read more about the exhibition please click here
