Daredevil acrobats, ringmasters, lion tamers, sword eaters, weight lifters, trained seals, panthers, kangaroos and even a unicorn. All it takes is some wire and fabric to create a pocket circus. 'Cirque Calder' gathers together a selection of photographs taken by Ugo Mulas of the Cirque, an early work by the American sculptor Alexander Calder. The 'Cirque Calder' was created between 1926 and 1931 and consists of small sculptures made from wire, twine, rubber, cloth and other objects that Calder put together and staged in scenes to create improvised performances. The friendship between Calder and Mulas, which began in the early 60s, lead to the creation of this set of photographs.
