More InformationThe catalyst for American interest in British sculpture was the Moore retrospective at MOMA in 1946-1947 (See 0008703) and the influence of Alfred H. Barr and Herbert Read. Clement Greenberg, however, admired neither modern British sculpture, nor Herbert Read, nor Henry Moore. Instead he went on to champion Anthony Caro.
