7-8 BENINCASA Carmine. La poesia di Henry Moore.
(The poetry of Moore. In his work the world is revealed as nature as prehistoric memory as everyday history. His every tale is a pictorial sign...everything is narration...part of a flowing approach to cosmic unity...The artist's mind and the things of this world gaze at each other without comprehension yet welcome each other in mutual amazement").
11-16 GARROULD Ann. Amo molto disegnare.
(I love to draw. Moore's love of drawing and his awareness that a sculptor needs an infallible knowledge of the human body. He studied drawing as a science as well as an art and used different methods to achieve the desired result: light shade perspective line sectional drawings watercolour. His materials are equally wide-ranging. His subject matter ranges over ideas and themes of his sculpture and subjects inspired by nature and everyday scenes. He believes firmly in the need for drawing to be taught in schools).
