Drawing on Sculpture - Graphic Interventions on the Photographic Surface.
Author/Editor: WOOD Jon
Publisher: Henry Moore Institute
Place Published: Leeds
Year: 2007
Date & Collation: 12pp.illus
Description: Number 55 in the Henry Moore Institute Essays on Sculpture series. Essay accompanies an exhibition, (13 May-12 Aug 2007), which uses some thirty works to investigate the ways in which sculptors since Rodin have used photographs as a way of understanding their own sculptures, or those of others. The graphic overlays, in pencil and in paint, range from the graffiti-like marks which tend to accompany sculpture in the public space to more tentative and provisional adjustments of work-in-progress. Brief mention of Moore page 7; 'Meadows, like Henry Moore, would often use photography (and also later the photocopier for Meadows) several times' to recontexualise drawings of sculpture.

States that Moore owned Dalwood's sculpture Tree, 1957.
