HECKMANN writes that Moore utilized the architectural setting as a backdrop or small stage, heightening the narrative attributes of his compositions. Moore quoted: Some people have said why do I make heads so unimportant. Actually for me the head is the most important part of a piece of sculpture. It gives to the rest a scale it gives to the rest a certain human poise and meaning and it's because I think that the head is so important that often I reduce it in size to make the rest more monumental". The exhibition travels to the Philbrook Museum of Art Tulsa in May 31-13 September 2015."
