Alexander Calder's monumental vision comes to life in this book, shedding light on the artist's extraordinary ability to transform space with art.
"He has taken a given space and, by molding beautiful elements of steel around it, caused it to become nonspace." - James Jones, 1963.
Calder: Nonspace takes its title from a 1963 essay by American novelist James Jones, written after his encounter with a group of large-scale sculptures at Alexander Calder's studio in Saché, France. In his essay, reprinted in this book, Jones astutely describes the artist's extraordinary ability to create works that transform their environments, as Calder's deep understanding of architectural and natural environments enabled him to reorder a viewer's perception of the world surrounding his sculptures.
