More InformationIncludes a photograph of Woman 1957-1958 bronze, and mention of the importance of Moore in promoting British art abroad: he happened at a time when his own individual spark was in tune with the Zeitgeist; in a restless age of wars when populations and ideas were on the move Moore's massive dynamic calm was immediately appealing and inspirational". Mentions also eleven sculptures by Moore owned by the British Council. Pages 22-23 constitute a listing of "International Prizes Won by British Artists since 1945" including Moore's 1948 International Sculpture Prize 24th Venice Biennale and 1953 International Sculpture Prize 2nd São Paulo Biennial."
