Publisher: Age Nouveau
Place Published: Paris
Year: 1950
Date & Collation: 0 1950(May) 109-117.16 Plates.
Description: In issue Regards sur la Grande-Bretagne. Includes two pages on Henry Moore in which he is seen as the most influential artist to have appeared in Britain for over a century. He will become internationally renowned as the greatest living sculptor of the age. His eclecticism is reflected in the many influences that can be perceived in his sculpture, both cultural and national, and there is an underlying theme of massivity. The significance of Moore's art is again probably the result of diverse subconscious influences.
