Henry Moore (1898-1986)

Life and Work Henry Moore was born in Castleford, Yorkshire, 1898 as the son of a coal mining engineer. He was the seventh of eight children in his family. He won a scholarship to Castleford Secondary School, where his art teacher influenced him strongly. During these years Moore began carving in wood and modeling clay, and he consciously decided to become a sculptor after hearing of Michelangelo's achievements at the age of eleven. He was in the army for 2 years then studied at Leeds School of Art and the Royal Academy of Art, London on a scholarship in 1921. Throughout his long career he experimented with many styles including abstract and biomorphic art In 1936 he took part in the International Surrealist exhibition. His primary concern, however has been with the human figure. In 1942 became an Official War Artist In 1946 had first retrospective of his work at the MOMA NY 1960-70s exhibits & opening his own museum gained him world wide recognition as a sculptor. Died at 88 in England in 1986.

A profound reverence for the dignity Henry Moore's sculpture is among the most recognized and influential of the twentieth century. His sculpture and drawings have been exhibited worldwide, and his monumental public works can be seen throughout the United States and Europe. Some of the artist's sculptures appear more abstract than others, but all exhibit a love of natural forms and materials, and a great simplicity. A profound reverence for the dignity of the human (usually female) form led Moore to execute a series of variations on the reclining figure throughout his life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xioYgUWsHg

Drawings During World War 2, the citizens of London took shelter in the subway tunnels because the city was being bombed. As an official war artist, Henry Moore did many drawings there. These “shelter drawings” captured the heroism of the English people and helped to involve the United States in the war.

Drawings

Sculptures Henry Moore’s work followed three major themes: Mother and child Family group Reclining figures He used a Direct Carving reduction technique working right into the media, such as wood and stone. His sculptures include ABSTRACT & NON-OBJECTIVE large scale works

Reduction Sculpture (Carving) Reduction sculpture is where material (stone, wood, ice) is taken away in order to create the form. Addition Sculpture (Modeling) Addition sculpture is where material (clay, wax, cardboard, paper) is largely added on to create the form.

Other Non-objective Sculptures

“I don't know of any good work of art that doesn't have a mystery.” “Painting and sculpture help other people to see what a wonderful world we live in.” “I don't know of any good work of art that doesn't have a mystery.” “The secret of life is to have a task, something you devote your entire life to, something you bring everything to, every minute of the day for the rest of your life. And the most important thing is, it must be something you cannot possibly do.” ~Henry Moore http://www.theartstory.org/artist-moore-henry.htm

CATEGORIES IN VISUAL ART Realism / Representational Subject looks natural or “real.” Represents actual objects or subjects from reality. Abstract / Formalism Based on a subject or reality—you can recognize objects or symbols. Transforms the subject. Non-Objective / Formalism NON OBJECT, no subject or clues of a subject. Based only on the Elements & Principles of Art. Created purely from an aesthetic point of view.

What is Non-objective Art? Does not contain a recognizable subject. Focus on elements of art (color, shape, line, form, space, value, texture). Utilization of principles of design (balance, repetition, unity, rhythm, proportion, harmony, variety, emphasis, movement). Purely for aesthetic reasons.
