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.

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."

Description: Unpublished B.A.(Hons) Fine Art Sculpture thesis. The Helmet, 1939-1940 bronze; Helmet Head No. 1, 1950 bronze; Helmet Head No. 2, 1950 bronze; Helmet Head No. 5, 1966 bronze.
1: A description of the pieces of sculpture relevant to this essay.
(The Helmet 1940 is related to the Classical Greek helmet which Moore no doubt knew from the British Museum. The interior form is seen as a figure, the exterior a smooth shell, the two forms together creating the complete image. The interior figure is both imprisoned and protected. The later works explore further permutations of interior and exterior form, with the image made closer to our own time by a similarity with World War 2 Helmets. Eyes and asymmetrical elements are introduced into the 1950 works, while the 1966 piece has more abstract interior form).
2. Looking at some of the works produced by Moore's contemporaries which show a similarity in image with the Helmet Head.
(Elements in works by Brancusi, Epstein, Picasso and Giacometti are related to Moore).
3. An Investigation of the themes well established in Moore's work which recur in the Helmet series...
(Reclining Figure, Mother and Child, Interior and Exterior, Warrior and Stringed Figures are all seen in the Helmets).
4. The relationship between Moore's Helmet series, his War work and the tradition of associated war images.
(Chronological proximity relates the Helmet to the Shelter drawings. Links are suggested with Nevinson, Goya and Rosenquist).
5. An explanation of the manner by which Moore's studio techniques may have influenced the forms used in the Helmet Head sculptures.
(Initial ideas may have evolved from mould used in casting, although Moore denies this in favour of forms in nature).
6. Conclusion.
(Moore used well-known art historical image as a simple exercise in form).
