The artwork titled “BROOCH,” created by the renowned artist Alexander Calder in 1938, belongs to the Expressionism movement and falls within the genre of jewelry and design.
The artwork showcases a distinctive circular form, characterized by a series of symmetrical, undulating lines encircling its perimeter, creating a visually striking appearance. Within this captivating frame, three colorful, polished geometric stones (one blue, one red, and one that appears to blend red and amber hues) are elegantly secured by fine wire, adding vivid accents of color to the composition. The juxtaposition of the bright stones with the intricate wire design and the central pin element presents a harmonious interplay between color, form, and structure. The careful arrangement and craftsmanship highlight the artist’s expertise in transforming metallic materials into a piece of expressive adornment.
