Publisher: Albert White Gallery
Place Published: Toronto
Year: 1976
Date & Collation: (3-29 April).12pp(22 illus).Introduction by Alan G. WILKINSON.
Description: 44 Prints 1949-1975. One 1975 Bronze is also illustrated in the catalogue. Wilkinson stresses that Moore's graphic work is an extension and continuation of his love of drawing, and similarly embodies Moore's obsessions with subjects related to his sculpture. Prométhée (See 0008261) and the Sheep album (See 0003614), combined with the Shelter drawings and subsequent major prints, provide an important contribution to 20th century printmaking.

32-41 PACKER William. The sculpture of Henry Moore.
(Notes the unity of Moore's work over the years and his growth to pre-eminence in art. His career is discussed from the early influences and the acquisition of technical skills through travel and the confrontation between Primitive and Classical art and the development of his own personal imagery. His emergence in the 1930s is placed within the cultural context of that decade. The war provided a useful pause to consolidate his sculptural thinking in the Shelter drawings before returning to sculpture through commissions in the 1940s and using Hoglands as a base for the production of monumental works of the later years which have their origins in the experiments of his youth. "Henry Moore is without the slightest doubt a very great artist who stands four-square in the great humanist tradition...").
