On Tuesday 15 February, Kunsthal Rotterdam is organizing another edition of 'KunstKoppels' (ArtCouples). During KunstKoppels you will meet someone in the Kunsthal who is completely new and unknown to you. Someone from another generation, or with a different background or lifestyle. This edition is dedicated to the exhibition Calder Now. After an introduction you will visit the sensational exhibition about Alexander Calder’s influence on contemporary art as a KunstKoppel. KunstKoppels is organized in cooperation with Rotterdam Heroes, a youth project of Unie Van Vrijwilligers Rotterdam (UVV). The main language during this event is Dutch.
Miraculous, gravity-defying installations, sculptures that cause amazing optical illusions, and works that appeal to all the senses. The exhibition 'Calder Now' shows twenty sculptures by the modern master. Besides his work you will discover installations, performances, and sculptures by ten international contemporary artists. This must-see exhibition shows how Calder’s innovative mind has been a source of inspiration for many generations after him.
