Lithograph in colors on wove paper - Signed and numbered in pencil // Alexander Calder's 'Clown' (1976) is a vibrant lithograph that captures the artist's playful exploration of shapes and colors. Rendered in bold primary hues of red, blue, yellow, and black, the composition features swirling patterns and concentric circles that evoke a sense of movement and whimsy. The central spiral and surrounding circular forms create a dynamic rhythm, reminiscent of a circus atmosphere and Calder's fascination with kinetic art. The abstracted geometric forms appear to pulse with energy, suggesting the lively spirit of a clown's performance. Printed on wove paper, this work is signed and numbered by Calder in an edition of 150, with additional artist's proofs. 'Clown' exemplifies Calder’s joyful approach to abstraction and his ability to convey motion through static images.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
