| book description |

Gorgeous archival photos capture Calderâ€™s transformation of sculpture with his invention of the mobile With multiple essays by renowned scholars, artwork and installation images, and a suite of historic photographs of Alexander Calderâ€™s (1898-1976) work taken by Marc Vaux in the 1930s, this catalog traces the breadth of Calderâ€™s innovative practice, leading up to his conception of the mobile in 1931â€”an unprecedented form of kinetic sculpture that radically altered the trajectory of modern art. Alexander Calder is one of the most acclaimed and influential sculptors of the 20th century. He is renowned for his invention of wire sculptureâ€”coined by critics as â€œdrawings in spaceâ€â€”and the mobile, a kinetic sculpture of suspended abstract elements whose actual movement creates ever-changing compositions. Also included is a lively series of drawings Calder made at the Bronx and Central Park zoos of animals in motion, which recall his wire sculptures of the same subjects.
