Searching for Calder is an ongoing research project on American modernism resulting in an abstract mural based on the exact dimensions of the work Bent Propellor (1969) by Calder, executed in the ‘calder red’ paint.

Bent Propellor was a red stainless-steel public sculpture, installed in front of the World Trade Centre in 1970. The work was severely damaged in the aftermath of the 9/11 attack and could not be restored.
