13-21(5 Moore illus) FULLER Peter. Modern sculpture: a contradiction in terms.
(Those who are commonly heralded as pioneers were, in fact, uncompromisingly anti-modern. The primitive is by definition un-Modern. Moore's works were an indictment of the concerns of our century, and an affirmation, in a peculiarly sculptural way, of other more enduring human values. Moore drew deeply upon those indigenous romantic traditions which evoked the similarities between the body of a woman, ranges of mountains and hills. Later works lost in immediacy of handling but gained in the terrifying power and scale).

(post-war British sculpture has been dominated by the mature monumental works of Henry Moore. Moore succeeded in maintaining a consistently imaginative range of works that broke formal boundaries whilst dealing with grand human themes. He transcended initial public misunderstanding appealing eventually to the orthodox and experimental alike").

Description: Review of Roger Berthoud's The Life of Henry Moore (See 0000182). His biography is full of assiduously garnered facts and a careful chronicling of Moore's major sculptures and his public career; it is written with an easy and readable narrative style accessible to the scholar and general reader alike. And yet despite all the information and evenhandedness it is impossible to put the book aside without feeling that appropriately perhaps there is a hole in the middle of it.""
