From the brand: This piece was created in honor of the centennial celebration of
Calder’s Circus
, in collaboration with the Calder Foundation and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Calder began his
Circus
in Paris in 1926 as a portable distillation of the natural circus fashioned from wire, cork, fabric, and other materials—at once sculpture, theater, and performance.
This tee features a photograph from Calder’s 1926 identity card. The text on the back comes from an original review of
Calder’s Circus
, written by French critic Legrand-Chabrier and published in the newspaper
Candide
on 23 June 1927.
