This show upstairs at the Lefevre Gallery, London, 1931, shared the gallery with an exhibition of William Staite Murray, a potter and member of the Seven and Five group of painters and sculptors. An article describing Murray's work observed:

"If Mr Murray's pots aspire to the condition of sculpture, the new works by young British artists...may be said to aspire to the condition of pottery. Not, in this case, by way of utility but by putting the emphasis upon the abstract appeal of form and colour. Mr. Henry Moore, the sculptor, takes the lead in interest. His "Mother and Child," in sycamore, is an extraordinarily beautiful thing. There is an emotional as well as a formal relation between the two figures, and all the deformations appear to be controlled by the general idea plus the nature of the material."
