Date & Collation: 240pp.Illus.Bibliog.
Description: The author acknowledges considerable financial support from the Henry Moore Foundation.
49-52(Illus 23-25),etc: Epstein and Moore.
Moore came to know Epstein and his work from his first term at the Royal College of Art and Epstein's influence can be seen in Moore's early carvings. They shared an interest in the Mother and Child theme; and some comparisons are made between individual works by the two artists. Epstein recommended Moore for one of the London Underground figures, wrote about the young artist, and purchased works from Moore's Leicester Galleries exhibition (See 0009327). There are one or two other references to Moore throughout the book: the West Wind, 1928-1929 Portland stone project, and brief quotes from Moore about Epstein's collection of Primitive art, and the older artist taking the brickbats and insults.

The book opens with the statement: I am not attracted to straight angles or to the straight line hard and infleible created by man. I am attracted to free-flowing sensual curves. The curves that I find in the mountains of my country in the sinuousness of its rivers in the waves of the ocean and on the body of the beloved woman. Curves make up the entire Universe the curved universe of Einstein"."
