Henry MOORE (Castleford 1898 - Much Hadham 1986)
English sculptor. Henry Moore is best known to the general public for his large abstract bronze and marble sculptures. He was instrumental in introducing a new form of modernism to the UK. His figures are mostly abstractions of the human body. Many of his best works fall into the "mother and child" or "reclining figures" category, except for a brief phase in the 1950s when he devoted himself to portraying groups of persons. Moore's work is characterized by organic and natural shapes and usually gives a suggestive approach to the natural contours of the (female) body without being figurative. Moore felt a strong connection with nature and he drew a lot of inspiration from this. In his studio he collected all kinds of objects such as bones, stones and driftwood. The forms of his later abstract sculptures are often pierced or contain hollow spaces. Moore connoisseurs compare the twists and turns in his work with the landscape and hills of his native Yorkshire.
