TIGHTROPE WALKER 1932

"Tightrope Walker" is a 1932 ink drawing by Alexander Calder, known for his innovative approach to sculpture and his exploration of movement in art. This artwork depicts a figure on a tightrope with a simple and almost childlike style, typical of Calder's artistic expression. The delicate lines and minimalist composition emphasize the dynamism and fragility of the tightrope walker's performance, capturing the essence of movement and balance. This drawing reflects Calder's early fascination with circus performers and his interest in exploring abstract forms through line and space.
