Sol Lewitt & Alexander Calder: A Geometric Approach

18 January - 23 February 2024

This exhibition brings together the innovative works of two of the 20th century's most influential artists: Sol LeWitt and Alexander Calder. Although their approaches to art differ significantly, both artists revolutionized the way we think about space, form, and movement in visual art.

Sol LeWitt, a leading figure of conceptual art, is known for his exploration of geometric forms, grids, and systems. His works emphasize the idea behind the art rather than the final product, often involving a set of instructions that can be followed to create a piece. In this exhibition, visitors can experience LeWitt's wall drawings and intricate sculptures that reveal the beauty of mathematical logic and the endless possibilities within strict parameters.

In contrast, Alexander Calder, famous for inventing the mobile and his exploration of kinetic art, brings a dynamic, organic energy to the exhibition. Calder's works are characterized by their fluid, sculptural forms that interact with space and the environment. His mobiles, delicate yet dynamic, move with the air, engaging the viewer in a constantly changing experience.
