More Information

This small group exhibition took place at the Zwemmer Gallery, Charing Cross Road, London, 26th November - 13th December 1930. It contrasted the works of four sculptors: Jacob Epstein, Frank Dobson, Henry Moore and the late Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, who had been killed in action during World War I. The catalogue contains a forward written by R.H. Wilenski, an early supporter and patron of Moore's 'monumental vision', who would go on to write the first major critical assessment of Moore's work. The essay was published in Apollo Magazine, a highly respected international art magazine, in December of the same year.
