Captured in striking black and white, this image depicts Alexander Calder’s monumental sculpture “Trois disques” rising against a moody summer sky in Montreal. The photograph emphasizes the work’s dynamic geometry and riveted steel surface, contrasting the sculpture’s sweeping curves and sharp planes with the soft texture of the clouds above.
Taken in the summer of 2022, the composition balances modern form with natural light, evoking Calder’s signature interplay of movement and balance. In the distance, the silhouette of Montreal’s skyline anchors the scene — a reminder of the dialogue between art, architecture, and the city it inhabits.
A study in structure, shadow, and stillness, Trois disques, Montreal celebrates both Calder’s enduring vision and the quiet power of monumental public art.
