TREE 1941

Alexander Calder's 1941 "TREE" is a classic example of his iconic mobiles. The sculpture features a black, abstract, tree-like form that supports a delicate mobile of colorful shapes. These shapes, suspended by thin wires, move gently in response to air currents, creating a dynamic and playful interplay of form and movement. Calder's mobiles, which he began creating in the 1930s, are known for their abstract forms and graceful, kinetic qualities. They are a signature element of modern sculpture and continue to delight viewers with their playful and innovative approach to art.
