Year: 1941
Date & Collation: 21 1941(Sept) 200-206.4 plates.
Description: An aesthetic appreciation of Moore's Sculpture from 1923 to 1940 on the occasion of the Temple Newsam exhibition (See 0009049). The impression is of a superhuman scale... This remains essentially a carving from a block of stone the base remaining as witness of its original proportions. And so one can take no exception to the arbitrary proportion of the great limbs to the little trunk or to the fact that the head has no particular expression only the universal vital strength which animates the whole figure... Already Moore is using the geography of a woman's body to express his passionate feeling for the earth itself... as if Moore had been Time himself with all his patience and the wind and the waters for his tools... He has moved from adventure to adventure boldly and without compromise but never erratically always logically step by step always in sympathy with his medium always a craftsman always dealing with the real thing of sculpture.""

Year: 1949
Date & Collation: (3 Sept)..(3 illus).
Description: A B.B.C. Third Programme broadcast on the occasion of the British Council exhibition touring Europe from 7 October 1949 (See 0008026). Moore's form is seen as crucial to his importance, and comes into play at just that point where his work ceases to be a copy of nature. Classical and primitive works influencing Moore are outlined, while the problem Moore has set himself is to get from his material the maximum of what I can only call form life." Letters in response to this text appeared in issues of the Listener for 10 September 1949 (Horace Shipp Margaret MacKenzie) 17 September 1949 (Francis Watson) 24 September 1949 (Horace Shipp) 1 December 1949 (Francis Watson)."
