Description: The Artist and his Public series. Figure, 1932 lignum vitae is used to illustrate the point that a sculptor portraying static architectural forms will carve them in granite or stone or hard wood like Henry Moore..." as opposed to rugged expression of character when clay or wax would be the medium in the manner of a Rodin."

Description: Short book review of 0009257. It is a tribute to the virility of the modern movement in sculpture in this country that a book devoted entirely to the work of one of the younger sculptors should have been published with every chance of success. Few among them deserve recognition more than Henry Moore.""

Description: Part of a discussion in The Living Image series between V.S. Pritchett, Graham Sutherland, Sir Kenneth Clark and Henry Moore; broadcast on the B.B.C. Home Service. The discussion began by considering the degree of detachment possible in portraying air raid damage. Moore defended criticism from the man in the street with the argument that prior knowledge of art is needed to appreciate contemporary works. On the original point he stated that human experience is the only experience we have to work from". Abstract art ideas from nature the individual's form vision and representational art are later discussed. W.E. WILLIAMS praises this discussion in another article in this issue of the Listener under the heading The Spoken Word: "Moore and Sutherland proclaimed in every word they spoke the same integrity which animates their sculpture and their painting.""

Description: Text of B.B.C. television discussion between Wyndham LEWIS and Geoffrey GRIGSON (for modern art) and A.K. LAWRENCE, R.A. and Reginald BLOMFIELD, R.A. (for the traditionalists). In the chair: William ROTHENSTEIN. Several works of art are put forward by each side for consideration, including Moore's Composition, 1931 Cumberland alabaster. Wyndham Lewis put the piece forward as a good work of a revolutionary stamp" and "Picassoism in stone" and went on to briefly explain the carving and its creative origins. To Blomfield it meant "nothing at all" and excited in him "disgust and contempt". The text produced letters to the Listener in the issues for 22 June 29 June and 6 July 1939 all briefly mentioning the work by Henry Moore.

Description: Weekly Notes on Art series. The art of sculpture, which has been dead in England, and perhaps in Europe, for four centuries, is reborn in the work of Henry Moore, now on exhibition at the Leicester Galleries (See 0009327). His personal will to dominate material and form, and not to be balked by any conventions takes him to the head of the modern movement in sculpture. The key to the appreciation and understanding of Moore's work is in the nature of the material used and the translation of meaning into that material. Further to Moore's success is his awareness of form, and the ability to create out of a conception which inheres in the mass itself. Form is then an intuition of surface made by the sculptor imaginatively situated at the centre of gravity of the block before him". The illustrations are: Mother and Child 1930 Ham Hill stone and Composition 1931 blue Hornton stone. Letters commenting on this article appeared in the Listener for 29 April 1931 (Mark Springer on stone as stone) and 6 May 1931 (Percival Gough on creative forms of rebirth from the very material of the Earth; and C.S. Meacham "Russian Bolshevism destructive of all that is highest and best in life is indeed making a deep inroad into all that civilisation has done so far".)"
