Floor 7 Elevator Landing, Event is Free with Museum Admission

Join journalist and author Bonnie Tsui for a special walk-through of "Get in the Game," focusing on what moves us — muscles. In her new book "On Muscle," Tsui blends science, culture, investigative reporting, and personal narrative to explore not just what muscles are but what they mean to us. From how the body morphs depending on the playing field to the complexities of body image and the factors that shape it, Tsui will reflect on how artworks in "Get in the Game" invite us to consider the muscles we metaphorically and literally flex. She’ll also delve into the physicality of crowds and the ecstatic joy of fandom. Designed for visitors of all ages, each session lasts approximately 30 minutes.

Friday, January 24th | 10:30 AM Curator Tour of SECA Art Award Exhibition

Join Shana Lopes, Assistant Curator of Photography, and Maria Castro, Associate Curator of Painting and Sculpture, for a tour of the 2024 SECA Art Award exhibition celebrating Rose D’Amato, Angela Hennessy, and Rupy C. Tut. Each artist has conceived a gallery with new works that bring distinct perspectives, processes, and materials into the museum. RSVP details to follow.

"Amy Sherald: American Sublime" presents nearly 50 of Sherald’s luminous paintings, including her iconic portraits of Michelle Obama and Breonna Taylor, poetic early works, and new works on view for the first time.

Sherald’s artworks convey the quiet power in everyday people and invite viewers to participate in a more complex debate about accepted notions of American identity.

"Get in the Game," together with six sports-related companion exhibitions is SFMOMA’s most expansive presentation dedicated to a subject to date. Covering over 15,000 square feet with more than 200 compelling artworks and design objects, it showcases paintings, sculptures, photographs, video and interactive installations by some of today’s most important artists, together with design breakthroughs in sports gear, gaming and apparel.

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) is one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary art in the United States and a thriving cultural center for the Bay Area. Its remarkable collection of painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, design and media arts is housed in a LEED Gold-certified building designed by the global architects Snøhetta and Mario Botta. In addition to seven gallery floors, SFMOMA currently offers more than 45,000 square feet of free art-filled public space open to all.
