2803 Alexander Calder (1898–1976) – Derrière Le Miroir No. 156 – Cover Design – Lithograph (1966)
This original lithograph by Alexander Calder was published as the cover of Derrière Le Miroir No. 156, a special issue dedicated to Calder in February 1966. The design features Calder’s unmistakable style — swirling, vibrant forms in red, yellow, and blue, surrounding a hypnotic black-and-white sun motif. The abstract composition evokes a sense of joyful motion, echoing Calder’s kinetic sculptures and mobiles. The back cover includes Calder’s spiral signature element and publication details.
Derrière Le Miroir (DLM) was a renowned art publication created by Aimé Maeght and printed in Paris by Maeght Éditeur. This issue featured texts by Jacques Prévert, Meyer Schapiro, and Nicholas Guppy and included a deluxe edition of 150 signed and numbered copies. Calder's contributions to the DLM series stand as a testament to his impact on post-war modern art and his enduring relationship with Maeght.
