Horizon 1973

"Horizon," created in 1973 by Alexander Calder, is a vibrant gouache painting that uses bold lines and simple forms to depict a sun-drenched landscape. Calder, known for his mobiles, often explored themes of movement and balance in his artwork. This piece, with its swirling lines and large circular shapes, embodies that playful spirit. The stark contrast between the bright colors and the simple lines creates a striking visual impact, inviting the viewer to ponder the relationship between the abstract and the natural world.
