Sean Hemmerle, "Hoops" solo exhibition of photography

The Front Room Gallery is proud to present “Hoops,” by Sean Hemmerle. In “Hoops,” Hemmerle takes a look at the cultural phenomenon and spread of the American sport of basketball to all corners of the globe. Hemmerle’s photographic portraits of basketball courts document sites in over 14 countries in North America, Central America, Asia, Europe and Africa. In these times of global strife and turmoil, Hemmerle’s “Hoops” series emerges as a poignant testament to the enduring power of a simple sport that originated in Springfield, Massachusetts. Against the backdrop of worldwide challenges, the project illuminates the universal appeal of basketball.
