More InformationReport of interview during the mounting of the Serpentine Gallery exhibition (See 0002718 and 0002719). Moore was pleased even though Exhibitions are false. Each work creates its own individual problem and they're not intended to be seen en masse altogether". Moore summarised his philosophy: "The basis of my working belief is bound up in humanity and that's my total belief. For me everything may be related to it and derives from it. Sculpture my sculpture shows the relation of humanity with nature. It's an expression of an organic evolution with mankind and so belongs everywhere." The remainder of the article is an outline of Moore's career with mention of the influences and themes."
