Year: 1950

Description: The vitality of Moore's work belongs to the animistic sculpture of early cultures, but his focus on human subjects places him in the mainstream of western tradition. Moore is quoted on asymmetry and on the relation of drawing and sculpture. By a careful selection of materials he creates an ideal form from his deep understanding of nature. Includes other quotations from Moore's writings, biographical details, and a discussion on the Northampton Madonna and Child, 1943-1944 Hornton stone. Concludes with a discussion on the War Drawings and Moore's post-war sculpture, particularly Three Standing Figures, 1947-1948 Darley Dale stone.
