2 days agoThis inventive art space offers a new view of Alexander Calder's sculptures
Designed by the architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron, the center's cavernous galleries and outdoor areas have been shaped and proportioned to let Calder's kinetic mobiles move slowly in the natural airflow of the building, and to allow visitors to walk through and around his large-scale sculptures, or "stabiles," in the changing hues of year-round open-air daylight. "The pieces transform as you move around them and through them and with time," says Jason Frantzen, a partner at Herzog & de Meuron who led the design team.
