Current & Upcoming Exhibitions

Featuring three works on loan from the Calder Foundation, Calder: at home, among friends focuses on the domestic objects that the relentlessly innovative artist made throughout his life for his family and close friends.

With a sweeping range of objects and a global perspective, this exhibition traces the many odysseys of gold, a metal that has influenced cultures and legacies worldwide. While the majority of Calder’s jewelry was made from humble materials, the necklaces, bracelets, and brooch on loan from the Calder Foundation represent his small but important body of work in gold.

Curated by Catharina Manchanda, Following Space will pair wood sculptures by Pittsburgh native Thaddeus Mosley with select works by Calder. The exhibition will reveal how both artists create a heightened awareness of forms in space and instill the anticipation of change.

Calder’s friend, the critic Giovanni Carandente, donated a large portion of his personal collection to establish a modern art gallery in Spoleto’s Palazzo Collicola in 2000. Included is a permanent installation of Calder’s work and a maquette for the city’s monumental stabile Teodelapio, which the artist executed in 1962.

Three large-scale stabiles on loan from the Calder Foundation are installed among the rolling hills of Storm King.

One of the two tower galleries in the museum’s I.M. Pei-designed East Building boasts the world’s largest permanent display of works by Calder, including several long-term loans from the Calder Foundation.
