"Glacier with Coloured Petals" is an abstract artwork by renowned American sculptor Alexander Calder. The work features a bold interplay of black, white, yellow, red, and blue, with the central focus being a series of black-and-white striped arches layered on top of each other, reminiscent of glaciers. Scattered throughout the composition are vibrant, irregular shapes that suggest petals, contrasting with the stark, linear forms of the arches. Calder's signature style is evident in the dynamic energy of the piece, achieved through the movement and interplay of form and color. This artwork exemplifies Calder's transition from his earlier wire sculptures into the realm of abstract painting.
