Alexander Calder

Alexander Calder revolutionized modern art with his kinetic sculptures, known as "mobiles," which feature vibrant abstract forms suspended in equilibrium. Inspired by Futurism, Constructivism, and early non-objective painting, Calder gained global acclaim, winning the grand prize for sculpture at the 1952 Venice Biennale and receiving honors like the French Legion of Honor and the American Presidential Medal of Freedom. His work has been exhibited at major institutions, and his pieces often sell for eight-figure sums. In addition to mobiles, Calder's artistic range includes standing sculptures, paintings, set and costume design, public installations, and jewelry-making.
