关于这件雕塑

In the 1950s, Henry Moore executed a number of important public commissions, including Reclining Figure for the headquarters of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization in Paris. The Art Institute’s sculpture is one of six smaller bronze versions of the unique, over-16-foot-long marble figure that Moore installed at UNESCO in 1958. The artist looked to many cultures—particularly to enduring examples of art from ancient Greece and the Yucatán region of Mexico—to give his figural works their monumental forms and profound resonance with the art of the past. This reclining figure connects not only to history but also to the earth—its swelling masses and rounded voids suggest the female form as well as a landscape of valleys, mountains, and caves.

Henry Moore当时的生活

完整生平
  1. 1940–1986

    A bomb in Hampstead: the move to Hoglands

    In September 1940 bomb shrapnel hit the Moores’ Hampstead home and they left London for Hoglands, a farmhouse in the hamlet of Perry Green near Much Hadham in Hertfordshire. It remained Moore’s home and workshop for the rest of his life; though he grew wealthy he never felt the need to move to larger premises.

  2. 1950s

    Assistants at Much Hadham

    In the 1950s the scale of Moore’s sculptures grew so much that he took on a growing number of assistants at Much Hadham, among them Anthony Caro, Roland Piché, Maurice Lowe and Richard Wentworth.
