Description: Favourable exhibition review of Tate Henry Moore show. Summery of the accompanying exhibition catalogue, with particular focus upon Girl with Clasped Hands 1930 Cumberland Alabaster, (LH 47), Grey Tube Shelter 1940 drawing, (HMF 1724) and Maquette for Mother and Child 1952 bronze, (LH 314). Stonard states After 1945, and in particular following the success of the shelter drawings, Henry Moore became 'Henry Moore'. His own public reputation became unfolded inot his sculpture, in addition to a whole set of other 'pasts' that shaped his conservative formal reportory, including a strong sense of prehistory that had first emerged in the 1930s. Three Moore illus show:
Girl with Clasped Hands 1930 Cumberland Alabaster, (LH 47)
Reclining Figure 1929 brown Hornton stone, (LH 59)
Grey Tube Shelter 1940 drawing, (HMF 1724).

Description: Review of exhibition of the same name, focusing on Moore's interest in mythology in the years immediately after the Second World War, 1943-1953. Description of Hoglands, Bourne Maquette studio at Perry Green. 70 drawings and prints, 20 sculptures, letters and archival material. Commission in 1943 for six illustrations to accompany publication of Edward Sackville-West's play The Rescue, based on Homer's Odyssey; originally written for radio with a score by Benjamin Britten. Commission in 1949 for lithographic illustration of André Gide's translation of Goethe's Prometheus. Proofs and finished versions shown alongside original drawings by Moore, roughs ideas for title pages and lettering. Comparison to Picasso's commissions for book illustrations, for example Vollard Suite and Le Chant des morts. Illus of The Four Sketches 1950 lithograph, (CGM 23) wrongly described as Les Statues Imprisonnées and Euryclea holding Telemacus while Penelope scratches Odysseus's outline on the wall 1944 drawing, (HMF 2289b). 502 reference to David MITCHINSON comment that Moore based a number of the rescue images on photographs of rock formations in Zimbabwe and buildings in Mali, found in a book by Leo Frobenius. Reference to Helmet Head No. 2 1950 lead, (LH 281); King and Queen 1952-53 bronze, (LH 350); Draped Reclining Figure 1953-4, (LH 336 ) and Falling Warrior (1956-7) bronze, (LH 405). Connection between characteristic 'section-lines' of the drawings reappear in three-dimensional form in the sculptures of the early 1950s". Trip to Athens Olympia and Mycenae and Delphi in 1951 fired Moore's love for Greek art."

Description: Review of exhibition at the Dulwich Picture Gallery, showing 22 of the Sainsbury acquisitions. Reference to Moore's teachers Derwent Wood and Barry Hart; the culture of pointing; and Moore's contempt for academic procedures. HALL compares Moore's interest in the abstract expressive potential of pointing holes to Rodin's exploitation of casting seams in his bronzes. Where Rodin used casting-seams to suggest the potential of his figures to rupture Moore uses thread-like lines to suggest their frailty". Makes connection between Moore's stringed sculptures and the "stringness" of his drawing and graphics. Reference to curators Ian Dejardin and Amanda Geitner and catalogue essay by Anita Feldman Bennet. Illus of Bird Basket 1939 lignum vitae and string (LH 205); Women Winding Wool 1948 (HMF 2495); Mother and Child 1938 lead and yellow string (LH 186)"

Description: Exhibition review of 0011076. It neither reveals the artist's career in comprehensive detail nor does it uncover occluded or little known aspects of his vast output." Questions the omission of key works and the suitability of the Royal Academy as a venue "exacerbated by the hagiographical approach taken by the exhibition organisers". Criticises the "inflated rhetoric" of Moore's 1960s bronzes: "their vacuous forms betraying their distance from Moore's own handling." Reproduces and comments on a Sainsbury's advertisement in an October 1988 Sunday Times Magazine (See also 0013105) "A Sculpture by Henry Moore? No a potato by J. Sainsbury". Admires carvings of the 1930s and notes "Moore's failure to devise an adequate public language for sculpture"."

Describes process of scaling up from maquettes to full size works for bronze casting. "I never met Moore again.""
