ALEXANDER CALDER (United States, 1898 - 1976). "Cercles noir, bleu, rouge", 1975. Lithograph, copy H.C. Signed and justified by hand. Measurements: 65 x 50 cm; 75 x 59 cm (frame). The lithograph that we present brings together many of the identifying aspects of Calder's painting: the serene simplicity of abstract forms, full and primary colors, and formal dynamism. Calder studied at the Art Students League in New York, and in 1926 he held his first painting exhibition at The Artist's Gallery in New York. Before the end of the year he began his trip to Europe, which allowed him to meet the great figures of the time, such as Miró, Duchamp and Mondrian. Calder is one of the most renowned artists of the 20th century, with works in all the great collections of the world. From the MoMA in New York, where one of his sculptures decorates the main staircase, to the UNESCO headquarters in Paris. Other centers where he is represented are the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, the Städel in Frankfurt, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the Reina Sofía in Madrid and the Tate Gallery in London.
