PRE-SECTION QUOTE:
They call me a "playboy," you know. I want to make things that are fun to look at, that have no propaganda value whatsoever.
One of the most important American artists of the 20th Century, Alexander Calder's achievement spans over fifty years and a staggering range of media which are represented in the following paintings, gouaches, ink drawings, sculpture and a unique functional object. The works in each medium have their own distinctive character, but Calder's playful whimsy and formal inventiveness are constants throughout.
