Alexander Calder

The Star, 1960




During my summer sculpture class we looked at some of my favorite sculptors. I love Alexander Calder. Calder is a great artist to introduce to children because of his simple shapes and sense of humor. If you are not familiar with Calder's circus or the toys he designed they are worth checking out. It is Calder's whimsical side that makes me love his work so much.
