I came to Art Basel to be surprised, challenged, and moved—and this year’s wild, thought-provoking art delivered.

The skyline of Chicago is changing—and Clayco is right at the heart of it. 220 N. Ada is nearing completion at 29 stories and 314 feet, standing tall in the Fulton Market District as a new landmark for what’s possible when design, construction, and community come together.

An older man with white hair, glasses, a plaid shirt, and a black vest poses enthusiastically beside a tall, colorful abstract sculpture made of layered textiles, beads, and various textured materials. He gestures toward the sculpture with a smile. The artwork stands on a white platform in a modern, open office space with wood floors, plants, a perforated metal staircase, and hanging decorative lights.

Bob Clark in a red sweater holds a framed Far Side cartoon showing a chubby child about to slide down a playground slide where two spiders have woven a web at the bottom; a caption reads, “If we pull this off, we’ll eat like kings.”

The Day We Ate Like Kings

A Far Side cartoon sparked the confidence behind a bold, underdog bid that transformed Clayco. This story reflects how betting big—even when you’re in over your skis—can redefine a company’s future and prove the power of staying positive.
