Calder, The Conquest of Time, The Early Years: 1898-1940
Reading & Book Signing with author Jed Perl

Immerse yourself in Calder’s world with author and renowned art critic Jed Perl, who has written the first authorized biography of this inventive sculptor. Learn why Calder remains, in Perl’s eloquent words, “a barrier breaker, an avant-garde artist with mass appeal.” Signing follows and books will be available for purchase.
