This exhibition is an extension of the museum-wide display of the Hammer Contemporary Collection, in honor of the opening of their new expansion and the largest display of the Hammer's contemporary collection. This exhibition focuses on sculpture and works on paper, displaying the scope of their collection of work between 1951 to the present. After touring the exhibition, join Chloe in the museum’s courtyard restaurant, Lulu, for a cocktail, continued conversation, and mingling with other art enthusiasts.
