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.

Description: Written at the time of the Stuttgart exhibition (See 0005383). 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"."

Year: 1978
Date & Collation: (27 July) 1(26) Cover,4-6(6 illus).
Description: Report of interview during the mounting of the Serpentine Gallery exhibition (See 0002718 and 0002719). Moore was pleased even though Exhibitions are false. Each work creates its own individual problem and they're not intended to be seen en masse altogether". Moore summarised his philosophy: "The basis of my working belief is bound up in humanity and that's my total belief. For me everything may be related to it and derives from it. Sculpture my sculpture shows the relation of humanity with nature. It's an expression of an organic evolution with mankind and so belongs everywhere." The remainder of the article is an outline of Moore's career with mention of the influences and themes."
