Henry Moore: Vision, Creation, Obsession presents a selection of monumental sculptures and works on paper from our collections at the stunning Arp Museum Bahnhoff Rolandseck, overlooking the Rhine in western Germany.
The exhibition will be accompanied by three smaller displays. The first presents a Moore-Arp conversation, focused on their work in the 1930s. Another tells the story of Large Two Forms at the Ministry for Economic Development and Cooperation in nearby Bonn. The final space presents a dialogue with the Old Master works in the Rau Collection for UNICEF, one of the museum's permanent collections.
Co-curated by Sebastiano Barassi and Oliver Kornhoff, Director of the Arp Museum.

Exhibition Info: The Sainsbury Centre presents a major new exhibition exploring the enduring appeal of ancient Egypt in art and design from the ancient past to the present day.
Over 150 works drawn from collections in the UK and internationally will examine how ancient Egypt has shaped our cultural imagination. From antiquity, when the Great Pyramid was revered as a wonder of the ancient world, to the Cleopatra of Shakespeare’s stage, this ground-breaking exhibition explores this ongoing engagement with ancient Egypt and charts its many forms across centuries of art and design. The exhibition examines how the iconic motifs and visual styles of Egypt have been re-imagined and re-invented over time – revealing a history closely entwined with conquest and colonial politics.
