Calder, Callahan, and the Intensified Image explores the modernist approach and formal experimentation of American artists Harry Callahan and Alexander Calder.
Illuminated by Calder's axiomatic observations and organized into three thematic subsections with titles drawn from Callahan's musings, the presentation features nineteen works across different media, including sculpture, oil painting, photography, and works on paper. Together, these works demonstrate both artists' virtuosic ability to create what Callahan dubbed an "intensified image"—a depurated yet impactful work of art capable of pushing modern art towards new horizons.
