In this year of the London Olympics and Paralympics, Games People Play explores what games can tell us about human nature.

This second part focuses on contemporary photography and video by 16 important international artists who use sporting imagery to make wider comments on the human condition. Here, we see explorations of territorial control and attachment to a team, fascination with spectacle and the culture of competition.

We will also focus on the new generation of video games such as Free Rice and Phone Story which turn away from wasteful escapism to address real social and environmental challenges.
