Description: Shortened version, translated from German, of lecture given at the German Cultural Institute in Tokyo on 19 June 1962, and originally titled The Significance of Henry Moore's Work in Relation to Contemporary Sculpture. Stages of Moore's work are described under several headings. Structurality in the early works saw the union of solid elements. Truth to Materials. Organic Directions and asymmetry followed the early Cubist works. New Relationship to Space: Archipenko's use of holes took on a new momentum through Moore. A Distant Primitivism was seen in the weird forms of his post-war sculpture. Shadow of War was seen in the Warriors and the Shelter sketches: a communal graveyard with people waiting to be exterminated". Sculptural Fantasy was seen in his developing abstract works of the 1950s.
Title romanized: Henri Muua: Gendai to iu koya no kinenbi."
