Calder: the Conquest of Time by Perl, Jed
Calder: the Conquest of Time: The Early Years, 1898-1940
by Perl, Jed
 
Born into a family of artists, Alexander Calder forged important friendships with a who's who of 20th-century artists, including MirĂ³, Duchamp, Braque, and Mondrian. This volume moves through his early years studying engineering to his first artistic triumphs in Paris in the late 1920s and his emergence as a leader in the international avant-garde. His marriage in 1931 to the free-spirited Louisa James -- a great-niece of Henry James -- is a richly romantic story, related here with a wealth of detail and nuance.
