Overview
An incisive introduction to the life and work of Henry Moore, whose semiabstract works—inspired by organic shapes and the rolling landscapes of his Yorkshire roots—celebrated the blending of human figures with natural forms, and established a British sculptural renaissance.
Henry Moore (1898–1986) is well-known for his large-scale, semiabstract works that blend together humanlike forms with the natural shapes of the British landscape, thereby creating a distinctly unique and signature style.
This introduction offers an incisive look at the life and work of Moore. It features a generous selection of his works, from his monumental bronze sculptures to his carvings, prints, and drawings, including his sensitive yet powerful depictions of Londoners sheltering during the Blitz. Positioning him as one of the most important British sculptors of the 20th century, it examines how he pioneered a new vision for postwar modern sculpture, the influence of which can still be seen in British art to this day.
