Book Synopsis Henry Moore, Sculpting the 20th Century by : Dorothy M. Kosinski
Download or read book Henry Moore, Sculpting the 20th Century written by Dorothy M. Kosinski and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Moore (1898-1986) is arguably one of the most famous and beloved sculptors of the twentieth century, yet in recent decades his work has fallen out of favor in the world of contemporary art criticism. This handsome book examines this intriguing contradiction and seeks to reassess Moore's crucial contribution to art of the last century. Looking at Moore's early engagements with primitivism, his 1930s dialogue with abstraction and surrealism, and his postwar interest in large-scale public sculpture, the authors show how the sculptor helped to define some of the most significant aspects of modernism. The authors also contextualize within the polemics of early modernism Moore's emphasis on direct carving instead of modeling and the necessary balance between abstraction and what he called the "psychological human element". Moore's early sculpture -- largely unfamiliar to the general public -- is given particular attention, enabling the reader to explore the evolution of thematic and formal elements in his work and his ongoing response to different materials. Photographs, some by Moore himself, of over 120 works, including plasters, maquettes, carvings, bronzes, and drawings, are featured, many of which are previously unpublished.

Book Synopsis Henry Moore: On Being a Sculptor by : Henry Moore
Download or read book Henry Moore: On Being a Sculptor written by Henry Moore and published by Tate Enterprises Ltd. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Spencer Moore (1898-1986) was arguably the most influential British sculptor of the twentieth century. Brought up in Castleford in Yorkshire, Moore ended his life completing commissions for large-scale public sculptures in countries around the world. The scale of Moore's success in later life has tended to obscure the radical nature of his achievement. Rejecting the influence of his teachers and inspired by works from other cultures he saw in museums, Moore championed direct carving, evolving abstract sculptures derived from the human body. He was involved in the modernist Seven and Give Society and later in Unit One. Written by Henry Moore in the 1930s, these three powerful, polemical texts lay out his ideas about sculpture, calling for truth to materials, openness to other sculptural traditions and understanding of the importance of scale. Illustrated with archival photographs and with an introduction by his daughter Mary Moore, this book gives new insights into Moore's working methods and inspiration and speaks directly to artists today.

Book excerpt: An intriguing conversation exploring the relationship of Henry Moores career to that of Paul Klee is the focus of this handsome exhibition catalog accompanying the exhibition at Zentrum Paul Klee. Curators Sebastiano Barassi of the Henry Moore Foundation, Matthew Gale of the Tate Modern and Fabienne Eggelhofer of the Paul Klee Center have assembled a cross-section of Moores sculpture and paintings that demonstratethough the two artists never met, their closely related anti-academic stance and shared idea of a natural creative process. Both artists avoided the avant-garde debates on figuration and abstraction, and both, argue the shows curators, were concerned with allowing their work to combine abstract and surrealist, classical and romantic elements, in a sense, pointing the way toward postmodern stylistic diversity. With 80 images and essays by the three curators, this publication is a welcome addition to scholarship in the field.

Download or read book Henry Moore On Sculpture written by Henry Moore and published by Da Capo Press, Incorporated. This book was released on 1992-03-21 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Moore's reputation as one of the greatest sculptors of the 20th century is unassailable. But his words, both written and spoken, are often as thought-provoking, as moving, and as profound as his works. Few sculptors have spoken as eloquently as Moore has about their art; none with the same modesty, candour, and charm. What Moore has to say about his own sculptures, the work of other artists, his full and active life, and the craft of sculpture in general will prove to be of deep and enduring interest to all sculptors, artists, and those interested in modern art.

Book excerpt: Henry Moore has influenced the history of twentieth - century sculpture more decisively than anyone else. He was one of the first contemporary sculptors to realise his ideas in the public space throughout the world. His oeuvre was a lasting source of inspiration for an entire generation of artists - from Hans Arp, Alberto Giacometti and Pablo Picasso to the younger generation of German sculptors. Henry Moore (1898 - 1 986), known as the "Picasso of Sculpture", is regarded as one of the most important sculptors of the twentieth century and the epitome of the modern artist. Typical of his work is the interrelationship between nature and abstraction. He discovered the "voi ds", so - called openings and holes which heighten the sculptural, three - dimensional effect of his works. With this new approach Moore exercised a strong influence on younger sculptors, who gained decisive impulses from his sculptures. This volume presents M oore as the dominant personality of modern sculpture in collaboration with the members of the younger generation of artists.
Download or read book Henry Moore written by Doreen Ehrlich and published by Knickerbocker Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Universally recognized as one of the supreme sculptors of the twentieth century, Henry Moore's position as the greatest living British artist was unchallenged from the late 1940s until his death in 1986. Son of a Yorkshire miner, Moore trained at Leeds School of Art and won a scholarship to the Royal College of Art, where he rejected the academic tradition of modelling in favour of direct carving; his early style was characterized by monumentality and formal vigour. In the 1930s he became more closely aligned with the mainstream of European avant-garde art, but even his most abstract work was almost always based on natural forms. It was at this time that Moore developed some of his most characteristic stylistic traits, including his use of hollowed-out rounded forms, his interest in the relationship of the human form to the landscape, and such perennial themes as the reclining female figure and mother and child. Wider international fame came with Moore's sensitive and poignant Shelter drawings, made in his role of Official War artist during World War II. In 1948 he won the International Sculpture Prize at the Venice Biennale, which led to many public commissions. In his later work he preferred bronze to stone as his chosen medium and began work on an extremely large scale. This lavishly illustrated volume provided a fascinating introduction to a twentieth-century genius. An authoritative text highlights the complexity and variety of Moore's themes and discusses his life and working methods, while a host of full-colour plates provides a glorious record of the full range of Moore's work."--Publisher's description
