Year: 1978
Date & Collation: 46pp.19 plates.Bibliog.
Description: Unpublished thesis at School of Creative Arts and Design. Outlines working-class background of Moore's early family upbringing, together with photographs of Roundhill Road, Temple Street Infant School, Castleford Grammar School, Methley Paris Church.Although none of the similarities experienced in childhood by Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth can be seen to have exerted any one major influence which stimulated their creativity, nevertheless, when taken as a whole, it can be seen that the background from which they sprang would have offered a sufficiently good breeding ground for instinctive/intuitive ability to develop...there is not sufficient evidence to support the original hypothesis - to state categorically that their creativity was a direct result of the Northern environment - nevertheless, I do feel that it is reasonable to suggest that their creativity was encouraged and supported by their Northern background... It is an interesting fact, however, that seemingly both had to escape it before their work could flourish."

Description: Booklet of the Portfolio published on the occasion of the artist's 80th birthday on 30 July 1978 (See 0002891). Includes a brief preface by Orde LEVINSON, illustrations of the nine lithographs in colour, and fifteen black and white photographs of Henry Moore, with accompanying quotations from a conversation with Henry MOORE. Sometimes to make the drawing of a figure more real I put it into a setting: a three-dimensional space a landscape or a room etc... Graphic work to me is exactly the same as drawing. If you can draw well you can etch well because it is only using a finer point. The technical side is relatively simple. The fundamental ideas are based on drawing and good drawing for me is the ability to represent three-dimensional form in space on a flat surface - perhaps that is why I think that sculptors should be even more concerned with being able to draw than painters... Being a sculptor I could turn most of my graphics into sculpture... Good art is not produced in a hit-or-miss way or just by luck. It often needs great perseverance and effort both intellectual and physical... For me it is a bigness of spirit - a fundamental humanity almost a religious belief expressing that life is important and wonderful and worth living... In my opinion the artists that have been most original and have contributed most have also owed most to the past."
Also published in a hard bound total edition 70 copies accompanying the portfolio with nine original lithographs and fifteen colour photographs.
