Description: Includes a slightly unfavourable 16-line review of Moore's drawing exhibition at the Mayor Gallery (See 0009104). No doubt the shapes or shapelessnesses required great trouble for their fashioning but the exercise of his intelligence by the observer in trying to unravel the particular purpose of each curve or protuberance in the design is no more an aesthetic experience than the recognition of natural features.""

Description: Text of B.B.C. television discussion between Wyndham LEWIS and Geoffrey GRIGSON (for modern art) and A.K. LAWRENCE, R.A. and Reginald BLOMFIELD, R.A. (for the traditionalists). In the chair: William ROTHENSTEIN. Several works of art are put forward by each side for consideration, including Moore's Composition, 1931 Cumberland alabaster. Wyndham Lewis put the piece forward as a good work of a revolutionary stamp" and "Picassoism in stone" and went on to briefly explain the carving and its creative origins. To Blomfield it meant "nothing at all" and excited in him "disgust and contempt". The text produced letters to the Listener in the issues for 22 June 29 June and 6 July 1939 all briefly mentioning the work by Henry Moore.
