<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Alexander Calder’s <em>Tornado in Space</em> (1932) is a rare drawing from the crucial moment when he was redefining his artistic language through abstraction and movement.

טורנדו בחלל193230 1/2 x 22 1/2 ב. (77.47 x 57.15 ס"מ) דיו על נייר

"טורנדו בחלל" (1932) של אלכסנדר קלדר הוא רישום נדיר מהרגע המכריע שבו הגדיר מחדש את שפתו האמנותית באמצעות הפשטה ותנועה. היצירה, שאושרה על ידי קרן קלדר (מספר רישום A08417), מורכבת מקווים ספירליים נועזים המקיפים ומצטלבים במסלולים קצביים. צורות מסלוליות אלו מרמזות הן על כוחות טבע והן על דיוק מכני, לוכדות את תחושת התנועה על משטח ישר ומרמזות על הדינמיקה המרחבית של המוביילים המוקדמים ביותר שלו.





הרישום מגלם את הקסם של קלדר מהאנרגיות הבלתי נראות של היקום, והופך נייר לשדה של תנועה ומרחב. חסכון הקו מדגיש מחווה וקצב במקום תיאור, ומזקק את חקירותיו לקומפוזיציה גרפית בעלת בהירות מרשימה. דף זה שייך לקבוצת עבודות מפתח על נייר משנת 1932, כולל "מנהרת החלל" ו"תנועה בחלל", שבהן קלדר התנסה ברישום כאמצעי לבחינת רעיונות שימצאו מאוחר יותר ביטוי בצורה תלת-ממדית.





מקור הציור מחזק עוד יותר את חשיבותה של יצירה זו. "טורנדו בחלל" נרכשה באמצעות סוחר הוותיק של קלדר בניו יורק, קלאוס פרל מגלריית פרלס, ונשארה באותו אוסף פרטי במשך למעלה מחמישים שנה. יצירות קרובות מתקופה זו ממוקמות כיום במרכז פומפידו, בגלריה הלאומית לאמנות ובמוזיאון לאמנות מודרנית, דבר המדגיש את הנדירות ואת התהודה ההיסטורית-אמנותית של רישום זה.
