Alexander Calder was an American artist mostly known for his sculptures, but he also painted, made toys, did etchings etc. This piece is called "Sandy's butterfly" and I saw it in person at the
Nassau County Museum of Art. I love all of Calder's work I was introduced to him by a printmaking professor of mine. His work is always fun to look at. So if you're in NY you should stop into Long Island and visit the
NCMA. It's worth the trip, the property is huge and has a lot of history, plus you'll be able to see work like this plus works by many other artists installed all over the grounds.
