Description: GIBSON Eric. The retrospective modernist.Moore succeeded in bringing British sculpture into the 20th century...and played an important role in the wider context of modern sculpture... It offers no slight to Moore to observe that there was always something traditional about him... Moore's themes, too, seemed not to belong to the repertory of modern sculpture... Moore's most radical innovation, in fact, was his perforation and eventual fragmentation of the sculptural mass... He was steeped in the ethos of modernism... Moore's first step in the process of returning to aesthetic first principles was the study of a variety of non-European art forms... His prototypical figure becomes transformed into the Earth Mother... For all his seeming traditionalism, Moore remains a decidedly modern artist.
FINN David. Moore at Much Hadham.
My wife and I saw the Moores several times a year for more than a quarter of a century and we never left their home without a feeling of exhilaration. Seeing Moore's latest work in the studios was an exciting experience... Everything he saw was a subject for creation.""

Description: Written with Robin Knight in London. Moore, who died on 31 August 1986, had established a Foundation and prohibited posthumous casts of his sculpture. He was choosy about commissions during his lifetime, and in the 1960s rejected an exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum as his work would be out of place in the building. Moore's works are, however, common on public sites and prices have increased with the news of his death. Includes a note on the War Drawings and their commanding prices when they come on the market.

Phillip KING: "Amongst his many gifts what stood out for me was an incisive sense of observation combined with the power of simple and clear expression and a sense of identity strong enough to make order where others would see chaos.""

Description: Obituary, noting Moore's progress from the leading modernist artist to a representative of the old guard. Criticises public works and their proliferation, seeing his 1930s carvings as his greatest work. To be at the crossroads of abstraction and Surrealism at that historical moment to be at once an insider and an outsider in relation to both these movements proved to be a huge creative advantage for Moore...there is something to be regretted in this whole later phase of Moore's career. I was never convinced that the role of official artist really suited him.""
