Author/Editor: HENDY Philip.
Publisher: Horizon
Place Published: London
Year: 1941
Date & Collation: 21 1941(Sept) 200-206.4 plates.
Description: An aesthetic appreciation of Moore's Sculpture from 1923 to 1940 on the occasion of the Temple Newsam exhibition (See 0009049). The impression is of a superhuman scale... This remains essentially a carving from a block of stone the base remaining as witness of its original proportions. And so one can take no exception to the arbitrary proportion of the great limbs to the little trunk or to the fact that the head has no particular expression only the universal vital strength which animates the whole figure... Already Moore is using the geography of a woman's body to express his passionate feeling for the earth itself... as if Moore had been Time himself with all his patience and the wind and the waters for his tools... He has moved from adventure to adventure boldly and without compromise but never erratically always logically step by step always in sympathy with his medium always a craftsman always dealing with the real thing of sculpture.""

Description: Feature on Metropolitan Museum exhibition (See 0001077), outlining Moore's life and early artistic influences. Timeless qualities are noted: Moore's sculptures tend to have a weatherworn look that makes them seem ages old and inevitable like Stonehenge..." Sexual elements are seen in "universally meaningful fusions of male and female principles". There is a note on where Moore works can be seen outdoors in the U.S.A."

Description:

Includes a three-and-a-half page review by Douglas COOPER of Henry Moore: Sculpture and Drawings (See 0008893), praising the production but questioning the concept of oeuvre catalogues of artists still active. Most of Moore's work is admired, although he is seen as a weak draughtsman. Specifically mentions Moore's West Wind, Northampton Madonna and Child, and Shelter Drawings. Argues that the direction of the text does little to help readers new to Moore's art. Criticises Moore's adoption of "truth to material" philosophy.
