Alexander Calder was one of the truly ground-breaking artists of the 20th century. A pioneer of kinetic sculpture, Calder played an essential role in shaping the history of modernism. This show will bring together nearly 100 works, including a selection of his most significant motorised mobiles, to reveal how he turned sculpture from a static object into a continually changing work to be experienced in real time.

'Performing Sculpture' traces the evolution of Calder’s distinct vocabulary, from his initial years captivating the artistic bohemia of inter-war Paris, to his later life spent between the towns of Roxbury in Connecticut and Saché in France.
