Softcover. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at Galerie Louis Carre in Paris (October 25th until November 16th, 1946). Text in French by Jean-Paul Sartre and James Johnson Sweeney. Cover, frontispiece and three b/w plates reproduce photographs by Herbert Matter. 

Calder had a major show in 1946 at Galerie Louis Carré in Paris for which Jean-Paul Sartre wrote a seminal essay. He designed sets and costumes for a number of theatrical performances and designed a huge acoustic ceiling for the Aula Magna auditorium at Universidad Central de Venezuela. In 1952, Calder represented the United States at the Venice Biennale, winning the grand prize for sculpture. (Calder Foundation)
