In Motion: The Art of Alexander Calder

By: Director and Curator of Collections and Exhibitions Sarah Kohn

Feb 12 | 10:30a - 11:30a | Isabel Hall

Alexander Calder redefined sculpture by introducing the element of movement with his suspended works called “mobiles.” In addition to these abstract, kinetic sculptures, he is known for more traditional forms of art like works on paper and paintings. This talk by Director and Curator of Collections and Exhibitions Sarah Kohn will explore Calder’s career and his fascination with geometric forms, bold colors, and movement both literal and symbolic.
