We spent hours on the work of Alexander Calder. Paul : You like it as well! Claire: Yes, I did! I love his jewellery! Paul: They’re lovely things. They look very simple, but they’re not simple at all. Claire: The shapes are very strong, and the colours are very soft….. Paul: Anyway…. his hanging sculptures were the best for me! Paul: There was one huge one, called ‘Big Red’. It was made of triangular pieces, like feathers. The pieces were made of aluminium. They looked heavy, but they were light!
