Mica Likes Alexander Calder

  • One of Daddy's favorite sculptor's is Alexander Calder. His work and character is pretty fascinating. We found out that Mica likes him, and his work.
  • Calder's whole kitchen was filled with mostly products he made. He created so much work! 
  • He had a traveling circus.
  • Was the first to make a hanging, which he called a mobile and a stand still sculpture, which he called a stabile
  • He could set up a whole show with just wire in his pocket in one afternoon. 

  • Mica's watched a biography about Calder a few times, and sat through it. He kept trying to get his cousin Evan to come and see the movie too. It is by far one of our favorite biographies about an artist. Most artist movies are so boring. Not the one on Calder.
  • Then Mica's been looking though Daddy's Calder at Home book.
