RED PANEL 1936

"RED PANEL," a 1936 mobile sculpture by Alexander Calder, is an iconic example of his signature style. Calder's mobiles, often constructed from metal and wire, are known for their kinetic nature and abstract forms. The suspended elements in "RED PANEL" - a curved black rod, a leaf-like shape, and circles in white and brown - create a sense of playful movement against a vibrant red backdrop. This piece exemplifies Calder's exploration of color, balance, and spatial relationships, hallmarks of his artistic career.
