More InformationBilbao Basque Spanish version: Fold out leaflet on touring exhibition of the same name, starting in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Exhibition forms part of Art on the Street, the "La Caixa" Foundation programme for taking art to people. It includes seven monumental bronzes, created between 1960 and 1982 and representative of key motifs in Moore's work: the fascination with the reclining figure and the 'mother and child' themes; the exploration of the relationship of the human figure with the landscape, both urban and rural; the tension between naturalism and abstraction; the transformation of natural objects into sculptural forms. Illustrations of all works: Reclining Connected Forms 1969 bronze, (LH 612); Reclining Mother and Child 1975-76 bronze, (LH 649); Large Standing Figure: Knife Edge 1976 bronze, (LH 482a); Locking Piece 1963-64 bronze, (LH 515); Reclining Figure 1982 bronze, (LH 677a); Two Piece Reclining Figure No. 2 1960 bronze, (LH 458); Oval with Points 1968-70 bronze, (LH 596).
