| | Henry Moore |
| | Henry Moore was the most celebrated sculptor of his time, and the second part of his career, in particular, demonstrated that Modernist sculpture was, after all, surprisingly adaptable to official needs. | | | Moore made the most of the opportunities London offered, regularly visiting the museums, where he acquired a great interest in primitive art: he was particularly struck by pre-Columbian sculpture. | | | In his final years, Moore was increasingly criticized for the amount of work he was prepared to leave to his assistants, and for the resulting insensitivity of surface in many of his larger works. |

| | Henry Moore's artistic career began really with the discovery of Roger Fry's Vision and Design, a collection of essays that had been published in 1920 and contained two particularly influential essays, one on Negro sculpture and the other on Ancient American art. | | | Among Moore's fellow students at Leeds was Barbara Hepworth, who at the age of seventeen moved to London with a major scholarship to the Sculpture School of the Royal College of Art. | | | Henry imposed his sculptors to the attention of the world. |

| | Unlike Moore's usually preparatory sketches for his sculpture, a series of drawings of Londoners huddled in tube stations during World War II air raids stand on their own as works of art. | | | From 1919 to 1925 he studied at the Leeds School of Art and the Royal College of Art in London. | | | In the 1930s, the work of Pablo Picasso and of contemporary abstract artists were strong influences; many of Moore's works of that period are highly abstract, consisting of simplified, rounded pieces carved from wood, with numerous indentations and holes often spanned with veils of thin metal wires. |

| | Henry Moore: Sculpting the 20th Century |
| | For the current retrospective exhibition of the works of Henry Moore (the first in the U.S. since the 1983 Metropolitan Museum of Art show), The Thinker has been given something new to deliberate, as he is surrounded--nearly dwarfed--by a half dozen grandly scaled Moore pieces displaying massively confident virtuosity and inventive variety. | | | Today's public, accustomed to abstracted forms, will be reminded that Moore's work, now considered accessible, was once seen as radical and was a key influence in introducing the language of modernism to sculpture. | | | Early works, such as the marble Dog (1922) and the alabaster Head (1923) demonstrate Moore's attraction to pre-Columbian art and how his own creative imprint was applied to different media. |

| | Henry Moore is considered to be one of the masters of modern art and has produced some of the most significant sculpture of our time. | | | In 1955, he was commissioned to make a sculpture for the courtyard of a new building in Milan, Italy. | | | Moore noted that, "as I continued the attempts gained more unity, also perhaps became more organic and then one in particular took on the shape of a crucifix--a kind of worn-down body and a cross merged into one." In 1979, after developing this recurring theme, Moore cast Upright Motive No. 9. |
