What a WONDERFUL short video. Completely demonstrates the carefree child in Calder. A grown man, that obviously made all of the characters in the act, having such a good time with his work! AWESOME!
I grew up seeing the circus items in a glass case on the basement floor of the Whitney, at eye level for a child. I never knew the pieces worked and were part of a performance! Now I love them even more
This is a joy! Fell in love with Calder's Cicus back in the 70s at the Whitney when I was in art shool... this isn't half of it! My father bought me the book which I chersih still, My first art memories are of pushing his mobile ("lobster trap & fish tail", I believe) at the Guggenheim to make it move and cast cool shadows and having the guard yell at me (and my dad!)!

I loved this! Calder's circus is wonderful and sweet and fun. I'm so glad I got to see it for myself. It brought joy to my heart...something I couldn't say for the rest of the Whitney Biennial.
This is an utter delight. The essence of playfulness. We should pity anyone who is not charmed by it, for he or she must live a dull circumscribed life.
Este tío es total!!!, si vais algún día a Nueva York id al moma!, no os perdáis lo que allí tienen de el… lo mejor del moma sin dudarlo!!! Es un genio!
In the "Alexander Calder" video, when he performed Circus I noticed that he had all of his materials organized, which is very important when doing art work.
google didnt send me here i saw this film years ago, 30yrs now, alexander calder was interested in the enjoyment of children through adults, in the curious art world if it isnt obvious yet to most people here in the colonies, his focus was not in the entertainment of/for adults but of/for the children, and not so much to endulge but to get them interested in one of the great mysteries of life ie art, why the business communities forgot to save these wire artifacts was because they werent boring
amazing footage by jean painleve, a great documentarian (check out his work on Criterion Collection. And so wonderful to see Calder's creations at work. thanks
Mr Calder showing off his mechanical skills!!! ....sans artifices et de maniere pure avant meme que le cinema ne deviennent un spectacle Poetic in it's naivitee

You guys are unbelievable ! Calder is one of the biggest artists of the 20th century, damn !
Grazie infinite!!! Che emozione il piacere di Calder all'opera con le sue creazioni 💕
Loved the clever, inventive circus acts from the mobile master! Loved the one at the Whitney Museum today and this earlier one
Reading about Alexander Calder back in elementary school sent me here! This guy was spectacular!
Wonderful! Saw the Alexander Calder exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria in May this year and fell in love with his creativity.
