Alexander Calder, an American artist, began building a miniature circus in Paris in 1926, using wire, cork, fabric, wood, and other materials to create a world he could animate. The result, Calder’s Circus, is considered one of the most formative works of the twentieth century. The exhibition, High Wire: Calder's Circus at 100, reunites the legendary Cirque Calder with related wire sculptures, drawings, archival materials, and early abstract works that illuminate Calder's artistic language and the intellectual spark that led to the invention of the mobile mobile art. The show also includes works from Marcel Duchamp, Joan Miró, Piet Mondrian, and Isamu Noguchi.
