Description: Times Saturday Review feature. The Henry Moore Foundation is in a state of shock after the rejection of plans for a £10 million development scheme on the sculptor's estate. Mary Moore wants the Foundation to abandon its plans and to establish a display of her father's work in London. This is a report of an interview with Alan Bowness at Perry Green. Describes the work of the Foundation. Incorporates comments from Mary Moore on the need to retain the present scale of the studios, and mentions her claim to ownership of works in the Foundation's possession. Alan Bowness wants to show the collection in the best way possible, and does not think that Moore would have objected to the sensitive plans put forward by Jeremy Dixon and Edward Jones, the architects. Cork sums up: Far from desecrating Perry Green the proposed buildings seem set fair to blend with their setting enhance its appeal and ensure that Moore's profound respect for the natural world is made vividly apparent."
A letter from Alexander WALKER in The Times 3 December 1991 suggested a mini bus service for visitors to be run by the Foundation from Bishops Stortford railway station.
In a letter to The Times on 7 December 1991 Ralph STEADMAN suggested converting the derelict Battersea Power Station into a Henry Moore Museum rather in the way that the Gare d'Orsay was transformed in Paris."
