Focus Alexander Calder

Focus: Alexander Calder

Alexander Calder is best known for his mobiles abstract sculptures made of independent parts that incorporate natural or mechanical movement.

This installation, which includes early mobiles and wire sculptures, focuses on works created between the late 1920s and the late 1940s, prior to Calder's shift to monumental constructions and public works.

These works demonstrate the humor, visual sophistication, and inventiveness of his approach to making art, which quietly revolutionized ideas about what modern sculpture could be.
