Early work, Surrealism, Kenneth Clark. During the thirties he touched greatness...success and acceptance were to destroy the necessary tension...Perhaps the most dangerous to him as an artist was Kenneth Clark".
War Drawings. "These marked the beginning of Moore's decline. They're sentimental covered in icing sugar".
Madonna and Child 1943-1944 Hornton stone. "Such a repellent object...a soapy and sentimental monstrosity bordering on the kitsch".
Three Standing Figures 1947-1949 Darley Dale stone. "Now nobody sees it".
Draped Seated Woman 1957-1958 bronze "It isn't really a woman nor is it an autonomous object".
Commissions. "It was the great international public commissions that did the most damage...There's a kind of intimacy in Moore which is unable to survive beyond a certain scale".
Tate Gallery 1967 gift letter to The Times (See 0005439). "I don't think Moore ever wanted to dominate. He was concerned with his own position".
Art Gallery of Ontario plasters. "It got them out of the way...What better than to dump them in Toronto?"
Late bronze. "The sculptural equivalent of the male menopause...They are very closely connected with the phenomenon of the corporate logo...bland and boring and very undistinguished...they financed the Henry Moore Foundation...If we were to hide away...everything Moore did that was grandiose empty rhetorical and inflated we'd be able to see again a fine artist".
