Place Published: Ottawa
Year: 1979
Date & Collation: 1 1979 33-55(19 illus).Bibliog.Text in English and French.
Description: Reclining Woman, 1930 green Hornton stone purchased by the Gallery in 1956, is placed in the context of Moore's early work. The influence of Chacmool is traced through Notebooks of the time and the Underground Relief West Wind, 1928-1929 Portland stone. The Reclining Figure, 1929 brown Hornton stone at Leeds City Art Gallery is the contemporaneous work which is also compared with the sculpture under discussion. The Ottawa sculpture is seen as closer to the Mexican prototype than that of Leeds, and marks both the culmination of Moore's interest in Primitive art, and the establishment of the Reclining Figure as a strong personal idiom.
