Henry Moore: My Ideas, Inspiration, and Life As an Artist

Henry Moore; John Hedgecoe

Synopsis:
One of the world's greatest sculptors and a renowned photographer -- close friends for thirty years -- combine forces to provide insight into what makes a great creative artist. Part personal history and part stunning presentation of Moore's work and inspirations, striking photographs show his major sculptures and collected art, as well as the landscape arid natural forms that indelibly influenced him. Compare Moore's own sculpted masks with the African and Mexican trim pieces he so admires, or his figures -- filled with energy -- with Hedgecoe's nude studies. Close-ups focus in on small, fine details. Plus: a treasured glimpse of Moore in his workshop.
