Exhibition Info: This exhibition presents a group of over 30 drawings by Henry Moore, animated by a striking vibrancy. From the life studies of his student days through to the casual drawings of his late years, these works reveal a deep appreciation of the unique characteristics and possibilities of colour in drawing, expressing a visual imagination that both integrates and enhances Moore’s three-dimensional practice.

Exhibition Info: Configuration brings together a small, focused selection of sculpture, drawings and collages highlighting Henry Moore’s ceaseless investigation into form, material and volume. Throughout his lifetime, Moore collected objects such as bones, stones, shells and driftwood which he would turn over in his hands, build up, press into clay, cast, or photograph. This haptic practice saw Moore humanise these forms, and capture their relationship to the body both physical and imaginative.

Exhibition Info: This focused exhibition in the Gilbert and Ildiko Butler Drawings Gallery considers Henry Moore’s celebrated Shelter drawings as the point of departure for a new reading of the artist’s fascination with images of the wall, during and immediately after World War II.

Exhibition Info: In 2024, a selection of over twenty of Moore’s bronzes will be displayed in the landscape adjacent to the studios where he developed his ideas. Natural and human forms can be seen to have inspired sculptures across all of Moore’s most iconic themes: the mother and child, the reclining figure, and the juxtaposition of internal / external forms. A number of Moore’s multi-part reclining figures, where he asks the viewer to imaginatively piece together the body, are joined by some of his purest organic abstractions in which we can trace the journey from handheld pebble to monumental work.

Exhibition Info: Now open at Gagosian’s Athens gallery until 26 October, Henry Moore and Greece is the first exhibition of Moore’s work in Greece for twenty years.

Exhibition Info: Lucy Carrington Wertheim (1883-1971) supported many public galleries and young artists, and bequeathed over 50 works to Towner Art Gallery. This exhibition will bring together paintings, drawings and sculptures from her disbanded collection for the first time in 50 years alongside works exhibited in the Wertheim Gallery, which she established in 1930. The exhibition includes Moore’s Head of a Girl which was shown at the Wertheim Gallery’s opening exhibition.

Exhibition Info: Photographer Bill Brandt (1904-1983) and Henry Moore (1898-1986) first met during the Second World War when they both created images of civilians sheltering from the Blitz in the London Underground. Widely disseminated through news media and exhibitions, their haunting depictions of this human crisis became defining images of the war. This major exhibition begins with these early works and traces the artists’ parallel and intersecting paths across the post-war years, revealing their interdisciplinary range and the sculptural dimensions of photography, drawing and collage.

Exhibition Info: The Sainsbury Centre presents a major new exhibition exploring the enduring appeal of ancient Egypt in art and design from the ancient past to the present day. Over 150 works drawn from collections in the UK and internationally will examine how ancient Egypt has shaped our cultural imagination. From antiquity, when the Great Pyramid was revered as a wonder of the ancient world, to the Cleopatra of Shakespeare’s stage, this ground-breaking exhibition explores this ongoing engagement with ancient Egypt and charts its many forms across centuries of art and design. The exhibition examines how the iconic motifs and visual styles of Egypt have been re-imagined and re-invented over time – revealing a history closely entwined with conquest and colonial politics.

Exhibition Info: International sculpture exhibition, with 220 works by 128 artists.

Exhibition Info: In 2023, more than twenty monumental bronzes inspired by natural and human forms are displayed in the landscape at Henry Moore Studios & Gardens, adjacent to the studios where Moore developed ideas.
