Pyramids 1975 — Fine Art

Pyramids 1975 by Alexander Calder sets black geometric forms against a plain ground. The pyramid shapes stand in a row, each one cut from painted metal and joined by thin wires. The image reads like a sculpture drawn on paper.

You see the hard edges and the flat black tones that Calder used for his stabiles. This fine art print is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. It arrives assembled when the ready to hang option is used.

The matte paper holds the black tones without shine, so the flat shapes stay clear under a lamp. It works on a bedroom wall where the light hits the flat planes at an angle. From the bed you notice the black forms first, then the thin wire lines between them.
