Date & Collation: 2 hours.Colour.Sound.In Japanese.
Description: A series of four 30-minute television programmes 8-11 October 1990, broadcast on N.H.K's educational channel. Sculptor Yoshikuni IIDA speaks to camera, with illustrations and brief film of Much Hadham and in Japanese sculpture parks. He reads quotations from Henry Moore.
Part 1 is on Moore's life and career, Castleford background, education, influences. Cycladic art, Stonehenge, Chacmool, Brancusi. Moore had a subconscious predilection for primitive art and how the ancients worked with stone. His early carvings were entirely different from previous Western sculptural tradition.
Part 2 examines the Mother and Child theme and the Family Groups. His lifelong obsession came from his family background. One of the eternal themes of mankind which Moore expressed in the language of the ancients rather than through traditional Christian art. Style resolved by War Drawings and by Madonna and Child 1943-1944 Hornton stone. Influence of Picasso. Mother and Child became one unit eventually. King and Queen, 1952-1953 bronze an expression of loneliness, and a high point in Moore's art.
Part 3 concentrates on the internal-external theme in nature and how Moore was responsible for this notion in 20th century sculpture. Influence of Picasso and of Giacometti, with reptilian figures reflecting modern view of absurdity of existence, in contrast to ideal depictions of Greek sculpture. Helmet Heads likened to aliens from space. Early criticism of Moore's work.
Part 4 is on the theme of art and nature, Moore's reclining figures giving a sense of peace and recalling the soft hills of England. Organic shapes, and Moore's use of space. Iida visited Much Hadham in 1982 and describes the estate. Mentions Archipenko and compares Arp and Moore. Giacometti's art embodies the crisis of mankind, Moore's work overrides problems and creates harmony. Film and appreciation of Bronze Form, 1985-1986 bronze.
The Henry Moore Foundation possesses an audio tape English translation by Sim on R. PRENTIS of these programmes.
