# *Hammer Projects: Mike Cloud*

Solo exhibition · Mar 28, 2026 – Jan 10, 2027 · on view · Lobby

Three large portraits collaged from grocery bags, ads and cash by the Chicago artist Mike Cloud, with his collages of children’s clothing.

Cloud, a Chicago painter who often builds work from shaped stretcher bars and thick oil paint, fills the lobby wall with three loosely abstracted portraits, two of them new commissions, assembled from paper grocery bags, magazine ads, cash and other printed matter. Beside them hang pieces from Painted Clothing (2007–8), collages of children’s clothes whose dragons, fairies and rainbows point to marketing aimed at the young. It is his first solo museum show on the West Coast; Erin Christovale curates.
