More InformationSpecial programme in the series México en la Cultura in collaboration with El Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes, Museo de Arte Moderno, British Council and Henry Moore Foundation on the occasion of the México exhibition (See 0001472). Miguel Sabido introduces Moore and his enthusiasm for Mexican culture, and the programme is comprised of brief views of Moore in his studios at Much Hadham; Sculpture, Drawings and Prints on exhibition; dancers Mirta Blostein and Sonia Páramo and others including children dancing and commenting; actors Beatriz Sheridan and Claudio Obregon reciting poetry; and comments by Margarita GONZALEZ, Graciela KARTOFEL, and Juan ACHA. Electro-acoustic music is by Antonio Russek. Some Mexican primitive sculpture is also seen. Margarita Gonzalez comments on the tactile qualities of Moore's sculpture and introduces the choreography. Graciela Kartofel notes Moore's use of the Human figure and the concept of space in his drawings is shown. Found Objects and sheep are also seen, with comment on their mass and texture. Juan Acha mentions Moore's historical value in introducing real space into his sculptural volume in the form of cavities and eventually separate parts.
