   From April 28 to August 6, 2000 the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art featured the exhibition Calder in Connecticut. Later in 2000 a book based on the exhibition was published by Wadsworth Atheneum in association with Rizzoli International Publications. The book is authored by Eric M.Zafran and Cynthia Roman. The following photographs are taken from this book, a copy of which was donated to CTOldHouse.com by the late Douglas Setapen.
