Photo of the Day: Calder’s ‘Five Swords,’ at Storm King Art Center



The other day, in a prior post, I alluded to the presence of The Arch, by Alexander Calder, at Storm King Art Center in upstate New York. Today is time to spotlight another work of his in that unusual collection of outdoor sculptures that I photographed last October: Five Swords (1976), on “Museum Hill,” the site of many of the center’s earliest acquisitions.

Photo of the Day: Alexander Calder’s ‘The Arch,’ Storm King Art Center, NY



As I did the other day in my post on a Henry Moore sculpture, I did not want to miss another opportunity to write about Storm King Art Center, an outdoor sculpture park in upstate New York. I snapped this photograph of Alexander Calder’s The Arch (1975), set in The Meadows part of the site, in the same afternoon photo session last October when I took the one by Moore and a number of other artists.
