A companion to The Many Hats of Ralph Arnold: Art, Identity & Politics, this exhibition examines the parallels between Chicago-based artist Ralph Arnold, who made photocollages in the 1960s and 70s, and 21st-century artists working with similar media, including Krista Franklin, Wardell Milan, Ayanah Moor, Nathaniel Mary Quinn, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, and Xaviera Simmons. These contemporary works serve to further deepen our understanding of Arnold’s lasting contribution to Chicago’s creative legacy.

This exhibition is free and open to the public.
