Gouache and ink on paper. Signed, dated and dedicated to Medée and Jacsques A. Calder 61. (Lower right) Alexander Calder’s Untitled (1961) is a striking composition created with gouache and ink on paper, showcasing his dynamic use of bold color and gestural line. The artwork is dominated by a vivid red wash, layered with expressive black lines, circles, and intersecting forms that evoke movement and rhythm. The dripping ink and free-flowing brushstrokes highlight Calder’s spontaneous approach, reminiscent of his sculptural explorations of balance and space. Dedicated to Medée and Jacques, this piece captures the artist’s energetic abstraction, bridging his interest in two-dimensional and three-dimensional expression. Registered in the archives of the Fondation Calder, this work exemplifies his mastery of vibrant, graphic composition.

What is kinetic art?
Artwork by Jesus Rafael Soto

What is kinetic art?

Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.
