Autor

Cara Manes is Associate Curator in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. After studying engineering Alexander Calder moved to Paris in the late 1920s, where he found himself at the center of the city's artistic avant-garde. There, he developed his Cirque Calder, a performance artwork comprising dozens of miniature handmade objects, and a group of standalone figurative works in wire. Turning toward abstraction in 1930, Calder invented the mobile-an abstract sculpture made of independent parts that incorporate natural or mechanical movement. He would continue to explore the possibilities of this abstract visual language for the rest of his career, eventually shifting to monumental constructions and public works. Calder maintained a very close relationship with The Museum of Modern Art throughout the institution's foundational years; in 1943, his work was introduced to a broad audience through a mid-career retrospective at MoMA.
