Henry Moore: A European Impulse Details

Review “Though there has been no dearth of Moore exhibitions in the last two decades, this one, as embodied in this catalogue, distinguished itself by historicizing the presence of the British artist’s work in postwar Germany and considering it alongside contemporaneous sculpture and drawings by mostly German artists. . . . The visual interplay of the works illustrated, together with the remarks about them, makes a powerful argument for the prevalence of organic abstraction, primitivism, and the vestigial remains of the figurative tradition in modern European sculpture. . . . Highly recommended.” (Choice) Read more About the Author Hermann Arnhold is director of the Westphalian State Museum of Art and Cultural History, an arts and cultural museum in Münster, Germany.
