Description: History of controversy on acquisition of Sheep Piece, 1971-1972 bronze for Kansas City. On his death on 8 June 1967 farmer N. Clyde Degginger bequeathed $300,000 to the city to buy a sculpture. Laurence Sickman, Director of Nelson Gallery of Art, was charged with acquiring a work. In 1974 Ralph Coe of the Nelson Gallery visited Much Hadham, and on 9 September 1974 Mayor Charles Wheeler announced the commission. Lengthy deliberations took place on siting the work, which arrived on 5 June 1975, only to be placed in a warehouse. In a brief visit in April 1976 Moore rejected one planned site and requested an open air setting. The bronze was installed finally on 8 May 1976 in the grounds of the Nelson Gallery of Art.

A shortened version of this article, with basically the same illustrations, appeared in Norwegian in Norsk Sivilforsvarsblad (See 0005286). Explains the background of the war artists scheme, and notes war elements in Moore's sculpture such as Helmet Heads and Warriors. Describes events leading to creation of shelter sketches with their mythical-like figures. Notes Moore's long-standing interest in hollows and tunnels. These anonymous forms do not speak of the immediate danger but hint at the fact that there is something threatening the very core of the human race"."

Description: Radio 3 interview 27 May 1970 on occasion of Marlborough Fine Art exhibition of facsimiles and originals. Moore describes how he discovered the shelterers by chance when travelling home on the Underground. He made notes and drew the following morning, repeating this process for a couple of weeks. Kenneth Clark saw his sketchbook and invited him to become a war artist. Scenes related in his mind to art historical reclining figures and to Mother and Child theme. Tunnels, also of sculptural interest, influenced his later sculpture: using drapery would not have happened I don't think if I hadn't done the Shelter Drawings." Sense of impending doom outside without any physical action or movement gave a sense of Greek drama; and also related to Moore's static sculptures which convey a sense of action. Compared briefly with Goya's Disasters of War.
Moore has experienced no comparable event since other than domestic matters like the birth of his daughter and he has not been able to recreate the emotional state that produced the shelter sketches."
