Now open! High Wire: Calder’s Circus at 100 🎠🎪

One of Calder’s most iconic works—and one of the Whitney’s most beloved—is back.

🎥 Go behind the scenes as Calder’s troupe of acrobats, clowns, and animals take their places for the grand return of Cirque Calder. Featuring over one hundred objects, this once-in-a-generation exhibition traces his evolution into a pioneer of modern sculpture.

Experience the Circus in person on the 8th floor of the Whitney, from Oct 18, 2025–March 2026.
