Description: Book proposing a new way of looking at the evolution of Modernist art and literature in the West. 74 In Chapter 4: Nineveh, Armarna, Kyoto - Gill, Epstein, Gaudier-Brezeska and the Direct Carving Revolution Moore listed alongside Frank Dobson, Barbara Hepworth and John Skeaping as artists who characterised Modernist sculpture following the First World War, in their emphasis on direct carving. Moore reflected In my formative years 9/10 of my understanding and learning about sculpture came from the British Museum". 197 ARROWSMITH writes that it was left to the younger artists More Dobson and Hepworth to rediscover and extend the lessons of the British Museum."
