Description: Enthusiastic review of Henry Moore: War and Utility exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. General impressions of the exhibition, with close focus on/mention of the following works;
Wreaked Omnibus and Figures in Underground Shelter 1940-41,
Tube Shelter Perspective,
Working Model for Upright Internal/External Form 1951 bronze; constrains an embryonic figure within a capsule much like a rocket or a plane, looks, in this setting, as though it may well have been a meditation on the horrors of aerial combat.
Helmet Head No.1,
Barbed Wire c.1946 (TEX 4).
Parallels drawn between Moore and Picasso and Francis Bacon's work. Graham-Dixon mentions that Kenneth Clark may have alluded to Pompeii when speaking to Moore of the shelterers. Several quotes from Moore through out, not cited. Graham-Dixon concludes that Moore has suffered for his benignity, because late 20th- and early 20th-(sic) century taste has developed such a strong preference for images of violence and alienation - seeing them, in some sense, as being 'truer' to reality than any other kind.
