Henry Moore and the Arts Council Collection

0/5 ( ratings)

This beautiful small-format book presents a range of key works by the major English sculptor, Henry Moore , and examines his early relationship with the Arts Council Collection as advisor to its acquisitions committee in the early 1950s. Henry Moore was a major force in shaping the sculpture collection of the ACC, advocating the acquisition of a significant group of postwar British sculpture by such artists as Kenneth Armitage, Lynn Chadwick and Barbara Hepworth. Moore himself is strongly represented in the Collection , and 26 works--including sculptures, prints and drawings--are reproduced here in color, accompanied by critical commentary by Benedict Read. This is a succinct history of Henry Moore's practice between 1929 and 1962.
