More InformationComments on Moore's contribution to 20th century sculpture, mentioning in the process the Orangerie and Battersea Park exhibitions (See 0003082 and 0003093) and Henry Moore: sculpture and environment (See 0003357). Overy favours the early sculpture. He sees the Surrealist influence as whimsical, the Shelter drawings as sentimental and slack, and post-war commissions as disastrous.
