Alexander Calder's market remains strong despite a broader art market downturn. Thirteen Calder works have sold for over $1 million at auction this year, all within or above estimates, led by Christie's sale of *Gypsophila* (1949) for $8.5 million. Next month, Gladstone Gallery will bring Calder's standing mobile *Caged Stone on Yellow Stalk* (ca. 1955) to Art Basel Paris, priced at $5.5 million, after it sold for $3.2 million at the Gerald Fineberg collection sale in 2023. This market resilience coincides with major institutional shows: the opening of Calder Gardens in Philadelphia and a Whitney Museum exhibition celebrating the centennial of Calder's *Circus* (1926–31).
