Lot Essay

As a former high school basketball player, [David] Hammons brings his own love and devotion to the theme of sport, regardless of the prime social, cultural, and economic metaphors that play out in his works on that theme…basketball remains a favored target, foil, and object of devotion.
– Franklin Sirmans (F. Sirmans, “Searching for Mr. Hammons”, David Hammons: Selected Works, New York, 2006, n.p.)
