Description: English language edition of 1971 Fabbri publication (See 0004465) with minor changes to the Biography and List of Exhibitions, and with a different Bibliography. In the Introduction Moore is defined as a Classicist, who pursues his activity through the twentieth century movements by plastic investigation and graphic studies. Moore's humanistic portrayal of today's problems is outlined through the Reclining Figures, War Drawings and other motifs. The influences shaping Moore's outlook and the resulting form of the sculpture are discussed. Historical horizons, the English tradition, and organic form are seen as vital factors. Comparisons with other twentieth century artists follow. The Shelter drawings and some post-war sculptures are discussed in terms of mass and space.
