Henry Moore

Bildhauer, 1898-1986

Henry Moore war ein englischer Bildhauer und Zeichner. Moore ist bekannt für seine großen, abstrakten Skulpturen, die weltweit ausgestellt sind. Die Arbeiten sind meist Abstraktionen des menschlichen Körpers, typischerweise als „Mutter und Kind“ oder als „ruhende Figur“. Von einer kurzen Periode in den 1950er Jahren abgesehen, in der Moore Familiengruppen schuf, stellt Moore überwiegend Frauenfiguren dar. Seine Formen und Motive künden unbewusst von der Situation des Menschen heute, spiegeln den Zeitgeist unserer Epoche wider. Seine Fähigkeit, dem Humanismus in unserer Zeit neue Ausdrucksformen zu eröffnen, hat die Bildhauerei des 20. Jahrhunderts entscheidend geprägt.

Beide Brief an den Bildhauer und Kunstkritiker Arthur Graham Carey: „I think your idea of the Glenkiln Cross as being possible, is a good one. There is one cast of this sculpture still available. It was exhibited throughout last summer at Spoleto and was only returned to me a few weeks ago. For the last copy which went to my dalers in America, they gave me six thousand pounds for it, but I might be ready to reduce this a little, which I do sometimes, when the work goeds somewhere I would like it to be.

To Barry Hart: "Dear Barry, Here are [the BASE] measurements for the Madonna & child sculpture I'm doing for Claydon Church [...] & a very poor photograph of my studio which might just give you a faint idea of the Madonna & child, it's half hidden by the white plaster Family group in front [...]". - Slight abrasion with loss of a few words.

To the art critic Bernhard Degenhart (1907–1999). The first, in part: “I am of course delighted that you like my work enough to buy this small figure. You ask how many casts there are of the Reclining figure (pearl no. 1) 1952 which you have purchased. There is an edition of seven of this figure and one artist’s copy.” The second, in part: “I was away in Brazil, where a group of my sculptures were on exhibition in the Sao Paulo Biennial, and after that I went to Mexico…I have always admired ancient Mexican sculpture tremendously, for it has been a big influence in my work and I have always wanted to see it in its own surroundings.” The third thanks Degenhart for “the little book on Furtwangler.” In overall fine condition. A fine collection of letters with excellent artistic content.
