2000 Andros, Basil & Elise Goulandris Foundation, Henry Moore: In the light of Greece

25 June 2000 - 17 September 2000
More Information
Henry Moore: In the light of Greece presented a broad selection of sculptures, drawings, graphic works and tapestries, drawing attention to the influences, visible and less obvious, which the art of ancient Greece exercised on him. The exhibition goes some way to correcting certain misunderstandings and misconceptions of Moore's work which have previously portrayed the sculptor as indifferent to the aesthetic values of Ancient Greek art.

Curated by Roger Cardinal, Professor of Literary and Visual Studies, University of Kent at Canterbury.

Exhibition Info: Configuration brings together a small, focused selection of sculpture, drawings and collages highlighting Henry Moore’s ceaseless investigation into form, material and volume. Throughout his lifetime, Moore collected objects such as bones, stones, shells and driftwood which he would turn over in his hands, build up, press into clay, cast, or photograph. This haptic practice saw Moore humanise these forms, and capture their relationship to the body both physical and imaginative.
