Description: A cultural history of mathematics and art, from antiquity to present. Forward by Neil deGrasse Tyson. 215 reference to Moore in chapter titled Logic, in relation to Roger Fry, founder and contributor to The Burlington Magazine; British formalist artists of the 1920s; the Bloomsbury group; Barbara Hepworth. 217-218 section titled British Sculpture: Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. Reference to twentieth century sculptors drawing inspiration from the classical tradition, imitating nature as the Greeks had done; chance encounter of Moore and Fry in 1921; Fry's writing emphasising the emotional elements of design in nature. Moore quoted Roger Fry's Vision and Design was the most lucky discovery for me. I came on it by chance while looking for another book in Leeds Reference Library. In his essay 'Negro Sculpture' Fry stressed the 'three dimensional realisation' that characterised African art and its 'truth to material'. Moreover Fry opened the way to other books and to the realisation of the British Museum. That was really the beginning." (525 footnote: Moore interview by James Johnson Sweeney c. 1974). Illus of Reclining Figure 1935-36 Elmwood (LH 162). Reference to a vocabulary of organic forms as opposed to pure geometry; Plato; pre-Columbian and African sculpture; Cézanne; Leeds School of Art; Royal college of Art; Ben Nicholson; László Moholy-Nagy; Naum Gabo; Jean Arp; Constantin Brancusi; Theo van Doesburg; Herbert Read and art historian William WORRINGER. 223 Reference to German mathematician and philosopher Gottlob FREGE and British logician Bertrand Russell: 'Frege and Russell's ideal mathematical objects inspired sculptors Moore and Hepworth to disregard the transitory appearance of individuals and capture the underlying form of the human figure.' 270 in chapter titled Symmetry passing reference to Moore and Konkrete Kunst 1944 exhibition organised by Max Bill. 310-311 in chapter titled Utopian Visions after World War I reference to and illus of Stringed Mother and Child 1938 lead and string (LH 186f)"

Publisher: Routledge
Year: 2016
Date & Collation: x.Acknowledgements.237pp.Illus.Bibliography.Index.
Description: Book exploring the expanding programme of art installations and commissions for ecclesiastical spaces. Rather than 'religious art' reflecting Christian ideology, current practices frequently initiate projects that question the values and traditions of the host space, or present objects and events that challenge its visual conventions. In the light of these developments, the book asks what conditions are favourable to enhancing and expanding the possibilities of church-based art, and how can these conditions be addressed? 73 reference to Moore and artist David Mach in chapter titled Sanctury and section titled Non-believing Artists. Adrienne CHAPLIN writes 'Works like Mach's challenge the assumption that only artists of faith can produce religious art. Indeed, it can sometimes be the artist without faith who does the better job, unencumbered by expectations of conforming to the standard interpretations of either the church or the history of art'. The author is not convinced that Mach's works would have the long-term religious significance of Henry Moore or Henri Matisse. 96-97 and 190-191 reference to and illus of Madonna and Child 1943-44 Horton stone (LH 226) in St. Matthew's Church, Northampton, including reference to commission by Walter Hussey; public response to the work; Kenneth Clark; Epstein; Sutherland. KOESTLÉ-CATE writes on appreciation of what 'Rowan Williams has called the 'beyond' of an artwork: 'that awareness of depth in the observable world beyond what is at any moment observable'. This awareness is, he continues, 'close to what seems to be meant by the scared"'. 105 'Moore and Sutherland's commissions for St. Matthew's Church now belong to a sanctioned ecclesiastical aesthetic'. 158 reference to Moore's Madonna and Child Sutherland's Crucifixion and Epstein's St. Michael and the Devil each make use of familiar religious vernacular. KOESTLÉ-CATE writes that 'Moore's Madonna set in chain a new attentiveness to the possibilities evinced by modern art for the church in this country'."
