This major exhibition of sculpture by Alexander Calder is the first multi-work presentation of the artist’s iconic sculptures in New York’s outdoor spaces. Alexander Calder in New York is the fourth exhibition sponsored by Forest City Ratner Companies that the Public Art Fund has organized in City Hall Park since 2003. The exhibition includes five of Calder’s large metal “stabiles” (what Calder called his freestanding, nonmoving sculptures) and one of his signature hanging mobiles, which will be shown in the dramatic rotunda of New York City Hall. http://www.nycgovparks.org/sub_newsroom/video/index.html?key=13
