About
The Calder Prize 2005–2015 features the work of Alexander Calder, Darren Bader, Tara Donovan, Rachel Harrison, Žilvinas Kempinas, Haroon Mirza and Tomás Saraceno.The exhibition highlights Calder’s profound influence on contemporary art, exploring his resonance on a generation of twenty-first century artists. The biannual award in the amount of $50,000, which was inaugurated by the Calder Foundation in 2005, honours artists who have made exemplary work early in their careers that can be interpreted as a continuation of Calder’s legacy. Though the six laureates work in different media, they share a passion for Calder’s innovative spirit to envision new directions for sculpture. Their work hereby re-contextualises the scale of Calder’s influence far beyond his lifetime.
