More InformationCatalogue to accompany exhibition of the same name. Foreward by Richard CALVOCORESSI describing the exhibition as the first to 'look at the different ways in which Moore's rich sculptural vocabulary has been absorbed, reinterpreted and extended by contemporary artists, not always uncritically'. 15-37 Anita FELDMAN writes on Body & Void referring to the work of exhibiting artists; art critics Michael FRIED, David COHEN and Clement GREENBERG; work by other contemporary artists including Jenny Saville, David Nash, Anish Kapoor, Mark Leckle and Pierre Huyghe; and artists who have adopted a strategy of disempowering Moore's sculpture including PaulMcCarthy, and Julian Opie. 38-117 Plates and artist statements: Joseph Beuys, Keith Coventry, Tony Cragg, Richard Deacon, Anthony Gormley, Roger Hiorns, Damien Hirst, Des Hughes, Anish Kapoor, Richard Long, Sarah Lucas, Paul McDevitt, Bruce McLean, Bruce Nauman, Paul Noble, Thomas Schütte, Simon Starling and Rachel Whiteread.
