Untitled (Cardinal baseball player Minnie Minuso sitting in locker room) c. 1960

Editor: This photograph by Jack Gould captures baseball player Minnie Minuso in a locker room. It's intriguing, almost voyeuristic. What's your take? Curator: It's a snapshot of labor, really. The material conditions of professional sports are laid bare. Look at the repetitive lockers, the mass-produced uniforms. The image transforms Minuso's routine into a study of production and consumption. Editor: That's a perspective I hadn't considered. Thanks! Curator: Consider also the small format. It democratizes art, making it available for mass consumption.
