Publisher: Rencontre
Place Published: Lausanne and Paris
Year: 1968
Date & Collation: 84pp + 24 slides, in folder.Text in English, French, German and Spanish.
Description: U.N.E.S.C.O. Slides 'Painting and Sculpture' series. Published in association with U.N.E.S.C.O. Henry Moore: Mère et Enfant/Mother and Child/Mutter und Kind/Madre e Hijo. 24 colour slides on the theme of sculpture produced between 1924 and 1961, together with a fourteen-page text by Read in four languages. Much of Moore's art is on the Mother and Child theme, a subject with an immediate and universal appeal, and one which exhibits all the formal characteristics of his art. The motif stems from the art of prehistoric times and remains a celebration of the miracle of creation, a symbol of life itself, renewed in every generation. Each slide is discussed briefly. Arranged in chronological sequence, they document the development of the theme, and other aspects of Moore's art throughout the years. In conclusion Moore's treatment of the human figure, which combines a humanity with a tragic conception of life, is seen as a measure of his greatness, synthesising as it does the particular and the universal.

Description: Henry MOORE is interviewed with his sculptures on the front lawn of the Tate Gallery, explaining how the lawn was fenced in to avoid interference from traffic, railings and the stonework of the building. Moore speaks about: Working Model for Reclining Figure: Lincoln Center, 1963-1965 bronze drawing analogies with rocks coming out of the sea. Outlines his techniques and compares rough finish with the smooth Three Way Piece No. 1: Points, 1964-1965 bronze. Two Piece Reclining Figure No. 1, 1959 bronze subconsciously recalled Adel Rock. Standing Figure: Knife Edge, 1961 plaster produced statement on texture being the outcome of the form plus the tools. Reclining Figure: External Form, 1953-1954 bronze originally had an interior piece but pleased Moore without it, although the interior form is there by implication. Moore also mentions his mother and his father, and Michelangelo as his sculptural ideal. The title of the film is from a statement by the artist.
