<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. Authenticated by the Calder Foundation (registration number A08417), the work is composed of bold, spiraling lines that circle and intersect in rhythmic trajectories.

宇宙の竜巻193230 1/2 x 22 1/2 in.(30 1/2 x 22 1/2 インチ（77.47 x 57.15 cm)紙にインク
出所
パールス・ギャラリー（ニューヨーク
1974年、フロリダのプライベート・コレクション
アレクサンダー・カルダーの「トルネード・イン・スペース」（1932年）は、彼が抽象と運動を通して芸術言語を再定義していた重要な時期の貴重なドローイングである。カルダー財団（登録番号A08417）により鑑定されたこの作品は、リズミカルな軌跡を描きながら円を描き、交差する大胆な螺旋状の線で構成されている。これらの軌道のような形は、自然の力と機械的な正確さの両方を暗示し、平らな表面上の動きの感覚を捉え、彼の初期のモビールの空間力学を予感させる。





このドローイングは、カルダーの宇宙の目に見えないエネルギーへの憧れを体現し、紙を動きと空間の場へと変化させる。線の経済性は描写よりもジェスチャーとリズムを強調し、彼の探求を際立った明晰さのあるグラフィック構図に凝縮している。このシートは、1932年に制作された《空間のトンネル》や《空間の動き》を含む、紙に描かれた重要な作品群に属しており、カルダーはこの作品で、後に三次元の形で表現されることになるアイデアを試す手段として、ドローイングを実験的に用いている。





出所は、この作品の重要性をさらに高めている。トルネード・イン・スペース》は、カルダーの長年のニューヨークのディーラー、パールス・ギャラリーのクラウス・パールを通じて入手され、50年以上にわたって同じ個人コレクションに保管されている。この時期の作品は、現在ポンピドゥー・センター、ナショナル・ギャラリー、ニューヨーク近代美術館に収蔵されており、このドローイングの希少性と美術史的な共鳴が強調されている。
