Le point de non retour/ The Point of No Return from La Memoire Elementaire, 1976 // Alexander Calder's Le point de non retour (from La Mémoire Élémentaire) (1976) is a vibrant lithograph that showcases Calder's mastery of geometric abstraction. The composition features an arrangement of bold, colorful shapes including a black and white spiral, circles in red and yellow, and a pyramid form in blue and red. The background consists of horizontal black lines that contrast sharply with the colorful elements, adding a sense of movement and depth. The juxtaposition of solid geometric forms and dynamic line work creates a playful and energetic atmosphere, characteristic of Calder's exploration of balance and form in his art.

What is late modernism?
Artwork by Roy Lichtenstein

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.
