Plumbings II 1973

Alexander Calder's 1973 gouache on paper work "Plumbings II" uses bold, abstract shapes and bright colors to depict a playful composition that references the passage of time, and the mechanics of a clock. The iconic artist is known for his mobiles and wire sculptures, and his unique artistic style shines through in this graphic design-influenced piece. The bold lines and abstract shapes engage the viewer in a whimsical play of color and form.
