Alexander Calder: Performing Sculpture

11 Nov-3 April. The Tate Modern holds Britain's largest exhibition ever dedicated to the work of American sculptor Alexander Calder (1898-1976), best known as the inventor of the mobile.

Calder also created monumental stationary sculptures, which he termed stabiles, and figures made from wire, as if drawn in space.
