Black Trident 1967

"Black Trident" is a gouache and ink on paper painting by Alexander Calder, created in 1967. The artwork displays the artist's distinct abstract style, with bold black lines and simplified shapes against a grid of yellow, red and white. The interplay of color, line, and shape creates a vibrant and dynamic composition. The use of the trident symbol, a recurring motif in Calder's work, adds an element of symbolism and complexity to the piece.
