Volume 3

Sculpture 19955-64

text

This volume, the third in the seqence Henry Moore: Sculpture and Drawings is a magnificent illustrated record of the artist's sculpture in the ten years from the beginning of 1955 to the end of 1964. It reeals a remakable development in style and a richness and grandeur of production. Like its two predecessors this is the definitive work on Henry Moore's sculpture , cataloguing and illustrating every piece made by him in this period. It thus provides an eloquent combination of outstanding reproduction and thorough scholarship. The illustrations have been selected by the artist and the editor, Alan Bownes, who has also been responsible for compiling the catalogue and other apparatus: biographical note, lost of exhibitions, list of public collections and bibliography. Sir Herbert Read contributes a short perceptive introduction. Almost all the photographs were taken by the sculptor, or under his supervision. Important works are shown in the plate section, often from several viewpoints and in detail, and this provides a total of 179 plates. Other subjects are illustrated in the catalogue section. The book opens with a superb double-spread frontispiece in colour.
