Alexander Calder's Circus





I saw this show at the whitney a few months ago and it was really incredible. There are videos of him in this giant attic just playing with these things. They have moving parts and are made out of wire and cork and yarn. etc etc etc etc etc. I'm in loveeeee. i never really liked his other stuff that he's more known for (primary color metal mobiles) but this is right up my birth canal. Hope you like too.

  1. Wow. This is the greatest art work I have ever seen. I can't believe he did this out of stuff he just found lying around! It's incredible! Perfect! I love it!
