Publisher: Oxford University Press
Place Published: Melbourne
Year: 1976
Date & Collation: viii,222pp.Bibliog.
Description: Collection of essays, most of them previously published.
16-24 Henry Moore.First published in Hermes (See 0008554), magazine of the University of Sydney (1948) as a review article based on the British Council's exhibition of Moore's work which toured Australia in that year (See 0008597). Modern art arrived late in Australia and "words have grown about the works of Henry Moore in a few years like the tropical rain-forest which once grew about the Mexican sculptures he admires". Smith questions Moore's criteria from Unit 1 (See 0009258) of 'truth to material' and 'full three-dimensional realization'. He discusses individual works on exhibit and notes a trend towards abstraction and to the general rather than the specific symbol. "It is in the shelter drawings that his art...suddenly became eloquent. The symbolism became more powerful more precise and more contemporary whilst at the same time it became more universal..." A re-emergence of nature is seen in his most recent art."
