專家說明

This work is registered in the archives of the Calder Foundation, New York, under application number A08173.

"A light breeze [starts] in motion weights, counter-weights, levers which design in mid-air their unpredictable arabesques and introduce an element of lasting surprise. The symphony is complete when color and sound join in and call on all our senses to follow the unwritten score. Pure joie de vivre. The art of Calder is the sublimation of a tree in the wind" (M. Duchamp, quoted in G. Braziller,The Sculpture of the Century, New York 1959, p. 85)
