Portland-based artist Julian V.L. Gaines will be included in the National Football League Artist Replay program for 2024, reimagined to spotlight BIPOC and emerging artists throughout the season and culminating in an exclusive gallery during Art Basel. Inspired by the world of football, he has created a one-of-a-kind piece that will be on display at Miami Art Week.
Established to amplify diverse voices, the Artist Replay program connects the NFL’s rich culture with the broader arts community. Renowned photographer Cam Kirk will curate five artists, including Gaines, inspired by the world of football, as they each design and create one-of-a-kind pieces that will be on display at Miami Art Week. Beginning in September and going throughout the season, the NFL will spotlight these five artists in content that gives an in-depth look at their artistic journeys, the creative process in their chosen mediums and the inspiration behind their Artist Replay pieces. Each profile video will set the stage for a special gallery event during Art Basel in Miami, where their designs will be displayed, providing a unique glimpse into the cultural impact of football through art.
