A good used copy without major defects. Publisher's note: "Alexander Calder--artist, creator of stabile and mobile sculptures, marvelous juggler of form and space--needs no introduction. With the casual informality loved by his intimates, the man who changed the direction of art in our time tells the story of his life and work in his 1966 autobiography. In the new introduction for this edition, Jean Davidson, Calder's son-in-law, speaks of this innovative artist's life, revealing glimpses of the man, his art, and his sense of approaching death."--Publisher's description. 288 pp. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.
