Henry Moore

At the center of Moore's work is the transformation of natural forms on a grand scale and the integration of the figure into the landscape. Impressive installation photographs showcase his sculptures in dialogue with Richard Meier's museum architecture, thus reinterpreting Moore's fundamental theme of the interaction between sculpture, architecture, and nature. In addition to nature, the human image of Renaissance art was an essential source of inspiration for the artist. Important impulses also came from his direct predecessors, foremost among them Aristide Maillol and Auguste Rodin, as well as from his companion Hans Arp, with whom he shared a connection to drawing from nature.
