The Coach

You are the Coach! Generous and community-minded, you’re full of creative ideas and dialed into the needs of those around you. You like having alone time to polish your strategies, but you know that they’re most successful when shared. For a gifted nurturer like you, there’s nothing quite as satisfying (and fun!) as unlocking the potential of others. It’s no surprise that people are drawn to your side.

As the Coach you would most likely enjoy:

Maurizio Cattelan, Stadium

Floor 7, Zone 2

Time to start recruiting — we invite you to play this twenty-two-person foosball table. Cattelan first unveiled this monumental interactive sculpture in Italy to critique a wave of heightened anti-immigrant sentiment in the country, sponsoring a team of North African migrants that faced off against a largely white Italian team in a game of foosball.

Ernie Barnes, Fumble in Line

Floor 7, Zone 1

A professional football player turned artist, Barnes was nicknamed “Big Rembrandt” by teammates for sketching on the sidelines. “The same qualities which make a successful football player are the same found in a successful artist,” he wrote in his 1995 memoir. “Dedication, single-mindedness, discipline, and skill.”

Tabitha Soren, Net Impact

Floor 7, Zone 5

The white fragments wound up in net are actual bone spurs the artist collected during the fourteen years that she photographed the draft class for the Oakland A’s. Fourteen tintypes behind the net show baseball players contorted mid-pitch. “[They’re] about what it looks like to try and touch greatness,” Soren says.
