Alexander Calder was a great American sculptor. He owned many toys when he was a boy, but he was never satisfied. He built more complex toys, full of mechanisms. Alexander Calder’s ingenious sculptures help us understand the reasons that lead an artist to create. This show is based on the works by Calder, hunter of iron birds, clockmaker tuned by the wind, sculptor of time, stable and mobile tightrope walker, a playful engineer who stopped to watch movement… Let us listen to his stories and have fun with him and his games; let us imagine the atelier of an eccentric sculptor; let him take us to the weird world he is going to build all around us.
