Synopsis

Alexander Calder, one of the most internationally revered of all American artists, has not generally been considered a major influence on contemporary artists.Yet as the 21st century unfolds, many artists are taking cues from Calder's hands-on investigations of form, balance, colour and movement as well as from his foresight in what we now refer to as the creative re-use of materials. Drawn from the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago's holdings of Calder's work, and augmented by the artist's classic mobiles, standing mobiles and stabiles from private and public collections, this pioneering consideration of Calder's influence includes works by some of today's most interesting and engaging sculptors: Martin Boyce, Nathan Carter, Abraham Curzvillegas, Aaron Curry, Kristi Lippire, Jason Meadows and Jason Middlebrook.

This is the first book to explore the relationship between today's contemporary sculptors and Alexander Calder, one of the most internationally revered of all American artists. Published to co-incide with an exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, the book contains new scholarship on Calder's creative re-use of materials, richly illustrated with works by Calder and some of today's most interesting and engaging sculptors.
ok.
