22 Nov Calder Shadows

With so many amazing art and fashion exhibits around the city this month, I spent an afternoon with friends hopping around to museums and galleries, scratching a few exhibits off my very long list. My favorite of all was the Calder Shadows exhibit. Mobiles and sculptures from American Artist, Alexander Calder (1898-1976) casted shadows along the walls and floor of the Venus Over Manhattan Gallery. The mobiles danced with the energy in the gallery, making for ever-changing shadows. Everywhere I stood, I saw new beauty in the linear shadows. As I reviewed my photos of the exhibit, I fell in love with the images where you can’t tell where the mobile ends and the shadows begin, they become one in the same. I might even print one of these images to frame and hang in our apartment.
