| Publisher Description: Alexander Calder had a nomadic childhood immersed in art. His mother was a painter and both his father and grandfather were noted traditional sculptors. With all that movement in his life, it is no surprise that this whimsical and visionary artist would bring movement to sculpture, whether by wind or eggbeaters, and upend sculptural norms.

Each beautiful hardcover book includes an interesting retelling of a single person's life, suitable for young adults and adults alike. These little gems will become beloved souvenirs of a favorite artist or a memorable trip to a museum. |
