Description: Undated tape made for 0011194. Opens with atmosphere track of Battersea Park Girls Walking Past the Three Graces" and closes with brief interview with a resident of the Mall Studios Hampstead "I had the bad luck to miss Henry Moore by a whisker".
Bernard MEADOWS comments on Moore's work from the 1920s until the immediate post-war years. "He was building up a sort of form-repertoire...There was an authenticity to the way that he saw people...and recorded what he saw...He was enlarging his experience and he was enlarging the experience of all the people who would come along and look at his work...The only fashion was originality...He knew all the Surrealist people...He was really in the middle of the Avant-Garde at that time...It became much more conventional...After the war...I continued working with him for short periods...In the 1940s and 50s the feeling of exploration and adventure was lessened compared with the 30s and the 20s but every so often he came up...with works which really display his old originality".

Description: 16 February 1988 unedited interview made for 0011194. Continues from 0014184 on Kenneth Clark. Clark had a role which was chiefly as Director of the National Gallery...it changed later because he got involved in all sorts of other things...He was an impresario he knew how to present people...That sort of success was important to Henry...he had tremendous ambition...He's a very very complex person...he felt it essential to work and work the whole time". Meadows rejects notion that Moore's work portrays his working-class background or his experiences in World War 1. He explains how the shift from the slow process of carving to the use of bronze enabled Moore to carry on and enlarge his audience.

Description: Unedited interviews made for 0011194. Bernard MEADOWS 17 February 1988 ten minutes on scale and on Moore as a person. I don't think that he had friends he confided to...he was well able to look after his own ideas...His one great help with his work was his wife Irina".
17 February 1988 Stephen SPENDER 45 minutes on London Mercury portrait (See 0009197). "We spent about a week doing it...there are something between six and a dozen different versions". Hampstead in the 1930s. "Henry Moore was trying I think very hard at that time to be an abstract artist...but however hard he tried at that time everything he did always turned into something else usually a reclining figure...He wished that he could do work in which his feelings about humanity were more obvious...He signed manifestos...He did feel very committed...In the whole of his life he never had any feeling that anyone was inferior to him or that anyone was superior to him...There was total refusal of Henry ever to force his politics his political sympathies into his work". Spender acknowledged Moore's consciousness of his childhood working-class background but rejected the notion that his work represented a failure of the Labour Movement. "When he got ideas about himself which were often really imposed on him by other people...he could often be misled he could think for instance that anything he did could be cast in bronze and it would be interesting because it was by Henry Moore...After the Moores left Hampstead I doubt whether Henry really had real friends". Use of natural objects and birth of Mary Moore.
17 February 1988 Ghisha KOENIG a student of Moore at Chelsea School of Art in the 1940s attacks Moore as a teacher a person and an artist: "No sense of adventure to the classes...He didn't relate to us as human beings...He is not the great sculptor because he hasn't a real vision...He went on to explain why Rodin was not a great artist... he used assistants he used pointing machines he enlarged maquettes of which he did not work on himself - all the very traps he himself fell into".

Description: 65mins unedited interview with Lord HOUGHTON made on 16 February 1988 for 0011194. Inscribed Rolls 4 & 5, 6 & 7. Describes meeting Moore in 1917 on train to London to enlist, in Civil Service Rifles. Bayonet training at Winchester in C Company in February 1917 (We thought it was good fun at the time...We hadn't got the anxieties of older men") and the horrors of active service by September 1917 ("Lifeless bodies that are lying with distorted features probably partly dismembered all covered in mud and slime...The biggest crime in history...We lost a generation"). Convalescent camp at Shoreham-by-Sea preliminary training at Mill Hill School to qualify as physical training instructors at Aldershot. Lord Houghton in Labour Government 1964-1970 avoids or rejects questions that Moore's works depict horrors of World War 1 or the failure of the Labour movement.
20 minute interview with Bernard MEADOWS on working as Moore's assistant 1936-1940 in Canterbury. "He was quite Left-Wing at the time...His work went along in spite of outside influences...Picasso had a tremendous influence...It was an incredibly inventive period in his work..." Kenneth Clark.

Description: Offprint booklet of Mitchinson's chapter in the book Mythen - Symbole - Metamorphosen in der Kunst seit 1800. Mitchinson's notes on Moore's Prométhée Lithographs inspired the research of Christa Lichtenstern. In 1949 Moore met French typographer and publisher Henri Jonquières, who suggested making an illustrated book from Gide's translation of Goethe's Prometheus, in the French "livres d'artiste" tradition. Moore worked with Walter Strachan, a friend with knowledge and passion for French art and literature. Moore started printmaking in 1930s. His interest in the use of colour and potential to reach a larger audience led to his experimentation with lithography. For Prométhée Moore produced eight full page lithographs, a design for front cover and title page plus two capital letters to introduce the text. Discussion of Moore's themes: draped elements; forms within forms; presenting sculptural figures receding into imaginary landscapes; use of rich colouring in atmospheric backgrounds; transition from terracotta to plaster as a medium for modelling in the late 1940s early 1950s.; 304-306 reference to: Moore illustrating literary subjects; Moore's start to printmaking and graphics; notebook with preliminary sketches for The Rescue, a melodrama by Edward Sackville-West, 1944; Prométhée Sketchbook 1949-50 (HMF 2547-2569).
