Description: Three-page feature in Sunday Times Culture section. Cover title: The Most Overrated Hands in Britain? On the occasion of the Henry Moore Centenary 1898-1998, Januszczak comments on the televison film Henry Moore: Carving a Reputation (See 0017783). Argues against the relentless promotion campaign by the Henry Moore Foundation. He is a bone out of which all the nourishment has been sucked. And Moore was never as important or significant an artist as post-war Britain liked to imagine. His sculpture was often dull. Often mawkish. Rarely surprising once it had settled on its rules".
