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.
