In 1926, Alexander Calder (18981976) moved from New York to Paris and began to use time and motion as 'materials' for animating line and space. Calders years in Parisan understudied part of the artists careeris the focus of this marvelous publication.A team of international scholars discusses Calders many innovations of this period, chief among them his abstract, motorized, and mobile works. They analyze the extended cast of Calders animated Circus, made in Paris between 1926 and 1931, and include previously unpublished photographs by Brassa and Kertesz of Calder and this beloved performative sculpture. The essays critically explore the intellectual, cultural, and artistic milieu of Paris in the late 1920s and early 1930s and the contexts of Calders friendships with Mir, Mondrian, Duchamp, and Man Ray, among others. What emerges in this fascinating book is a nuanced and detailed understanding of how Calders distinctive career first took flight.
