Exhibition Henry Moore

30/01—25/05/2015

Radical, experimental and avant-garde – the artist Henry Moore (1898-1986) is the centre of the first exhibition opening in the New Year with his masterpieces from the collection of the Tate. With only a few exceptions, he remained loyal to the technique of figuration – a passion he shared with Paul Klee. Both commentated in a subtle manner on the happenings of their time, Moore as an official English «War artist» in the Second World War (e.g. with his famous «Shelter Drawings»). The exhibition with 28 sculptures and 42 works on paper from the collections of the Tate and the British Council gives an overview of the work of one of the most important sculptors of the 20th century, whose revival was initiated in 2010 by the large retrospective at Tate Britain.
