About the Item
Alexander Caldwell creates uniquely pop art-inspired contemporary sculptures. He has acquired an international reputation for creating playful pieces whose minimalist form is amplified by bold colours. This indoor stainless-steel sculpture coated in lime green paint features a series of spheres in various sizes--bubbles connected to one another. The Calgary artist often finds inspiration for his shapes in nature. Caldwell is known for his superb craftsmanship—the glossy smooth finish of each piece is flawless, the result of layers of industrial paint.
“… The colour that transforms the industrial origins of my materials has become so important to the simpler shapes of my new work that it’s as if the metal has become an armature for the paint. “ Alexander Caldwell
Alexander Caldwell was born in Whitehorse, Yukon. He studied with Artist Katie Ohe at Alberta College of Art (now called The Alberta University of the Arts) graduating in 1985. He established Alexander Caldwell Design Ltd, in a warehouse that he converted into a studio and foundry. His work has been exhibited in Calgary, Miami, Chicago, Scotland, and Switzerland. It is widely collected in both private and private collections throughout Canada and internationally including the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Disney Tokyo, the W Hotel Korea, and Canadian Rocky Mountain Resorts. Caldwell lives and works in Calgary.

Born 1961 in Whitehorse, Yukon, Caldwell lives and works as an artist full time in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Alexander Caldwell’s sculptures are immaculate in execution and finish. Caldwell embraces curves and right angles, round volumes, and flat planes, where minimalism meets pop art. Squares, spheres, hemispheres and cylinders are the building blocks of his art. Each sculpture is painted a single bright colour or coated with a meticulous metal finish. Caldwell works mostly with found materials, although he will cast elements he wants to repeat. He employs colour to remove the shape as far as possible from its origins as a functional object. The colour that transforms the industrial origins of his materials has become so important to the minimal shapes that it’s “as if the metal has become an armature for the paint." Caldwell’s artworks are held in private and public collections in Canada, USA, Greece, and Korea.

View AllIce Nebula 3 - polished, geometric, abstract, painted steel sculpture
Located in Bloomfield, ON
This polished, geometric, abstract, painted steel sculpture is by artist Alexander Caldwell. Caldwell’s modern minimalist sculptures have been recognized for their masterful execution and flawless form and color. The Calgary-based artist’s work is often influenced by both nature and science. Ice Nebula is one of a series of pieces inspired by the extraordinary images of space sent to Earth by the Hubble Space Telescope.
This tabletop sculpture consists of several stainless steel spheres of different sizes welded together to form a tower-like shape, mounted on a wooden base. Caldwell’s signature paint finish—layers of glossy paint mask the seams of each component so they appear cohesive. The distinctive iridescent paint of Nebula changes color from blue-green to light purple in different light conditions. A nebula is a cloud of gas or dust in outer space.
