Description: Book examining how photography shapes the way we see sculpture. Introduction: The Problem of Photography and Sculpture: 10 passing reference to Moore in a list of artists who photographed their sculptures themselves, reacting to the problem of controlling public image of their sculptures. 11 Moore used photography to display his sculptures in a pastoral setting. A photograph taken in 1938 (illustrated p52) magnifies the small form so that it appears on a par with the landscape. The camera suggests the massive scale that Moore, in his early sculptures, had not yet achieved. 12 HAMILL writes about Smith and other artists including Moore, using photography to 'enact a pictorial encounter with sculpture. He staged his objects in dialogue with one another as well as with their surroundings, photographed from unexpected vantage points, and used jarring framing techniques'. 21 reference to Moore in relation to Joan PACHNER's research and writing in 1998 on photography by modern sculptors. 23 Discussion of Nash's signature style, re-envisioning objects as silhouettes and disconnected them from their surroundings, qualities that I compare with qualities in photographs of Moore, Rosso and Brancusi. 21, 23, 51-53, 56 and 58 In Chapter 1: Toward Mass Reproduction as a public Display in a section on 'Pictorial Photography' Moore is referenced in relation to exploiting the camera's vantage point to 'reenvision his sculptures'; altering scale; magnification; dramatisation of an object; using the camera to animate and transform sculpture; spatial perception. Elizabeth BROWN has written that Moore experimented with vantage point to arrange a 'wholly new and different composition' with every shot. Reference to Moore using photography to plan the installation of his work in Forte di Belvedere, Florence 1972. Illus of Reclining Figure 1938 bronze (LH 192 and LH 193) against a Kent landscape. Moore using photography to magnify and amplify his work. 108, 110,111 in Chapter 3: Images of Nonbelonging - Dramatizing Autonomy in the Sculptural Group Moore animated his sculptures as primitive forms by photographing them amid rough-hewn, uneven plinths of Hopton Wood stone, linking sculptures to their setting, as if the carved objects were totemic, archaic forms had been found amid the stones. Comparison to how Smith used photography to unsettle. Moore's photograph represents the sculpture in harmony with its surroundings, 'an eternal, enduring body unified with the landscape setting, conveying notions of sculptural solidarity and permanence.' Reference to Moore in relation to the writings or photo-essays by W.R. VALENTINER, Origins of Modern Sculpture 1946 and Carola GIEDION-WELCKER, Modern Plastic Art 1937. Illus of Reclining Figure 1939 at Burcroft, Kent 1939. 174 in Conclusion - Framed and Unframed Space Smith's photographs detach the sculpture from the environment. In contrast Moore rescales sculpture to 'harmonise with its surroundings, conjuring sculpture as primordial or eternal form.' Reference to Moore in the notes.

Description: This is the final volume of a series titled British Sculptors and Sculpture published by Lund Humphries in tandem with the Henry Moore Foundation. The series aims to promote the works of under recognised or under appreciated British sculptors. Page 45 refers to the anecdote about Moore at the age of 24 being given a student assignment under the tutelage of Derwent Wood where he was a professor at the Royal College Art (RCA) and how Moore by-passed the prescribed stage of plaster modelling in favour of directly carving the work in marble but later adding marks to the finished marble to make it look as it would had a pointing machine been applied to the plaster as prescribed in the assignment brief, which then leads to a discussion on critical theories of aesthetic formalism. On page 53 there is reference to Moore's 'official modernism' holding sway after the Second World War.
