Description: Distributed in the USA by St. Martin's Press.The way in which women's art and representation of women are collected and presented in museums and art galleries today.Developed out of an exhibition called Women and Men held at Whitworth Art Gallery, December 1991 to August 1992.
18,46-48(1 Moore illus) Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore.
Compares Hepworth's Sphere With Inner Form of 1963 and Moore's Two Piece Sculpture, No. 7: Pipe, 1966 bronze. Hepworth's is an image of a child within a womb, whilst Moore's imagery is phallic and sexual.
Since their deaths, the reputation of both artists has declined. Moore has probably taken the biggest dip, and his early reputation was inflated by the urgent nationalistic need to find a great British modernist who could represent this country on an international stage.
